What’s Happening
The City of Fishers is improving the intersection of 116th Street and Allisonville Road to enhance traffic flow and safety.

What to Expect

  • Improved left-turn lanes
  • Sidewalk and ADA ramp replacement
  • Traffic signal upgrades
  • Business access maintained throughout construction

Southeastern Parkway & Olio Road Roundabout Improvements

The City of Fishers will begin reconstructing the roundabout at Southeastern Parkway and Olio Road in July to improve safety and traffic flow at one of the region’s busiest intersections, which has a history of frequent non-fatal crashes. The project will be completed in December 2026 during 3 phases.
The project will add more room for vehicles, reduce backups on nearby roads, and make the roundabout easier to navigate. When completed this fall, the roundabout will help drivers choose the correct lane sooner, move through the intersection more safely, and reduce rear-end and side-swipe crashes.

Phase 1 – July – September
The roundabout will remain open with lane restrictions on Olio Road.
Crews will improve nearby 136th Street and permanently make it a two-way road, providing a detour option during Phase 2. They will also build a new connection road between 136th Street Southeastern Parkway to the east for easier traffic flow during construction.
Alternate routes are encouraged but not required during Phase 1.

More information and traffic maps will be announced before construction starts.
