I-65 off-ramp in Jackson County to close Wednesday

The Indiana Department of Transportation plans to close the southbound Interstate 65 off-ramp to State Road 11 at Exit 55 (Seymour/Jonesville exit) on Wednesday. The closure is scheduled to last 30 days and will allow the contractor, Reith-Riley, to pour new concrete pavement and install Weigh-In-Motion scales within the ramp area.

Drivers are advised to continue along I-65 south to U.S. Highway 50 at Seymour, then travel U.S. 50 west to Broadway Street to circumvent the closure.

INDOT says this work is part of a $6,951,000 design-build Weigh Station Project that combines weigh-in-motion sensing locations with facilities for certified scales and covered examinations.
