Work continues at the intersection of State Road 37 and 141st Street, where motorists are beginning to see some changes in traffic patterns.

The new right-in, right-out lanes on the east side of the intersection have now opened, allowing some traffic to move more freely through the construction zone. However, drivers should still expect delays. Lane restrictions remain in place and could cause traffic backups in the area as construction moves forward.

Fishers Director of Engineering Hatem Mekky says activity on the project will increase in the weeks and months ahead. The work is part of the ongoing State Road 37 improvement project, which includes construction of a roundabout at 141st Street to handle east-west traffic. The project is currently scheduled to be completed this summer.

Meanwhile, the Fishers Board of Public Works and Safety has approved bids for this year’s road resurfacing program. Much of the work will take place on neighborhood streets, although some main roadways are also included.

Resurfacing is planned for 131st Street between Cumberland and Promise roads. Portions of Howe Road and Promise Road will also receive new pavement.

Neighborhood resurfacing will take place in Weaver Woods, Weaver Creek, Weaver Woods North, Rosewood, Sunblest and Summerlin Trails.
