Fishers drivers face continuing construction detours and lane restrictions, with Saturday’s Geist Half Marathon adding temporary road closures to the mix, according to the city’s latest weekly construction report.
On 136th Street, widening work has moved into its second phase between Southeastern Parkway and Prairie Baptist Road. The stretch is closed to through traffic, with a signed detour using those two roads. The project includes raised medians, multi-use paths on both sides and drainage improvements.
At 116th Street and Allisonville Road, traffic remains reduced to one lane in each direction, with designated turn lanes. The current pattern is expected to continue through early October, weather permitting. The Fishers Crossing shopping center’s west-side connection to Allisonville Road is closed, requiring customers to use alternate entrances. Businesses remain open.
An additional restriction is scheduled for Sept. 14–16 on westbound 116th Street between Moore Street and Municipal Drive, near Barry’s Bagels. The outside lane will close from 3 to 7 a.m. each day; the inside lane will remain open.
In the Geist area, the Sept. 12 races will close Olio Road between 116th and 104th streets from approximately 4 a.m. to noon. Other roads and nearby neighborhoods will have rolling closures or temporary access restrictions. Reopening times depend on race conditions. Race organizers have posted detailed road and neighborhood access information.
The report also brings some relief: The intersection of 96th Street and Cyntheanne Road is open in all directions, although crews may return for finishing work.
Elsewhere, USA Parkway widening north of 106th Street will bring lane restrictions through October. Utility relocation at 131st Street and Brooks School Road may cause periodic restrictions as preparations continue for a new roundabout.
Resurfacing is substantially complete in several neighborhoods and on 131st Street, Howe Road and Promise Road. Upcoming work includes 96th Street between Carroll and Olio roads and the Springs of Cambridge neighborhood.
