INDOT Alert: SR 59 closed in Linton near intersection of SR 54

Beginning today, on Thursday, Aug. 12, INDOT maintenance personnel will close S.R. 59 near the Intersection of S.R. 54 due to a building demolition project being performed by the City of Linton.

The closure is expected to last for about a week. During the closure, local traffic will have access up to the point of closure, but through traffic should use the official detour following S.R. 67 and S.R. 54.
