Upcoming Road Improvements at 116th Street & Allisonville Road

What’ s Happening

The City of Fishers is improving the intersection of 116th Street and Allisonville Road to enhance traffic flow and safety. While the project was originally planned as a roundabout, additional analysis showed the improvements could be achieved through less invasive roadway changes. Construction is expected to begin on or after March 30 and continue through October 2026.

What to Expect

  • The City of Fishers will be improving left-turn lanes in all, replacing sidewalks & ADA ramps, & upgrading traffic signals to improve traffic flow & safety.
  • Business access will remain open
  • Intersections will remain open, but drivers will experience lane shifts, restrictions, & slower travel times, especially during peak hours.
  • Roadway projects are weather-dependent and schedules may change

Project Update (4/08/2026)

Construction is expected to begin the week of April 13 and continue through late October, weather and material availability permitting. Initial work will include construction signage and signal-related activity, followed by intersection improvements, curb and ramp work, sidewalk work, and paving later in the season.
