Roundabout at 116th Street & Allisonville Road one step closer to reality

It is a regular issue anytime traffic builds at 116th Street and Allisonville Road – the left turn lanes stack up and vehicles are backed up.  Fishers city engineers have been studying this issue, with an early recommendation to expand the turn lanes, but that was set aside long ago.

Fishers is now planning a roundabout at that intersection as the solution to the long-standing traffic tie-ups.  The bidding and start of construction are planned for 2024.

The Fishers Board of Works and Safety voted January 10th to approve a supplemental agreement to provide $413,825.43 in additional money for the roundabout project.  City Engineer Jason Taylor told board members this will fund additional work required for the project due to “changes in the surrounding area as well as the land that is owned by the city, and working around some of the details of development that may occur.”
