One bridge on State Road 58 in Bartholomew County will reopen to traffic, while another will close.

The Indiana Department of Transportation is installing a bridge deck overlay on the State Road 58 structure spanning the south fork of White Creek. That work is expected to be finished by May 1st. That will be in time to reopen the bridge about 9.5 miles west of Interstate 65.

INDOT officials say at that time, the State Road 58 bridge over a branch of White Creek about eight miles west of I-65 near Waymansville will close for removal. Plans call for the structure in Jackson Township to be replaced by a 41-foot-long box beam bridge with 35-feet of clear roadway, side-to-side.

INDOT says the state’s contract allows a closure of up 120 days. Detour signs will route westbound traffic via I-65, U.S. 50, State Road 11 and State Road 258. Eastbound traffic will detour via State Road 258, State Road 11 and I-65.
