Fishers roadwork update: 136th Street detour continues as 96th and Cyntheanne reopens

Fishers motorists face several construction-related closures and lane restrictions, although one major intersection has reopened, according to the city’s latest weekly construction update.

The intersection of 96th Street and Cyntheanne Road is now open in all directions. Crews may remain nearby to complete final work.

The 136th Street widening project has entered its second phase, closing the road to through traffic between Southeastern Parkway and Prairie Baptist Road. Drivers should use those two roads as the posted detour.

The project will convert the rural two-lane section of 136th Street into a boulevard with raised medians, new pavement, storm-sewer improvements and multi-use paths on both sides.

At 116th Street and Allisonville Road, traffic remains limited to one lane in each direction. The west leg of Fishers Crossing Boulevard at Allisonville is closed, preventing drivers from entering or leaving the shopping center through that connection. Alternate entrances remain available, and businesses are open. Sidewalks within the construction area are also closed.

Other work affecting traffic includes:

  • Lane restrictions on USA Parkway north of 106th Street through October.
  • Periodic restrictions during utility relocation at 131st Street and Brooks School Road, where a roundabout is planned.
  • Construction at the Southeastern Parkway and Olio Road roundabout.
  • Weekday lane restrictions on Cumberland Road between 106th and 116th streets from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
  • Resurfacing preparations on 96th Street from Carroll Road to Olio Road.

AT&T and Brightspeed fiber installation is also planned or underway in several Fishers neighborhoods. Residents may see utility flags, door hangers and crews working in easements behind sidewalks.

Construction schedules are weather-dependent. Drivers should follow posted signs, reduce speeds and allow additional travel time.

Here is the full listing, as provided by the City of Fishers:
