Expect traffic delays on SR 46 Monday and Tuesday

The Indiana Department of Transportation says that maintenance personnel have been scheduled to begin work placing a high-friction wearing surface on State Road 46, between Bloomington and Nashville, on Monday. INDOT says the installation of the surface is taking place “as an extra measure of safety at select curve sites along the scenic highway.”

INDOT Bloomington Subdistrict crews are scheduled to begin work at 8:30 a.m. on Monday and wrap-up around 6 p.m. the same day. Work is scheduled to continue through daytime hours on Tuesday. In all, seven curves will be treated. INDOT says that drivers should expect delays, as traffic will be reduced to a single lane in affected areas.

This work is dependent on the weather and may be rescheduled if needed.
