GREENE COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation announces a date change regarding a full closure for a bridge replacement project on State Road 67 near Switz City.

Beginning on or around Monday, May 11, contractors will close S.R. 67 from the intersection of S.R. 54 to the intersection of U.S. 231 to replace the bridge spanning Lattice Creek.
