INDOT announces bridge replacement in Jennings County

Indiana Department of Transportation officials met with contractor representatives and consulting engineers Thursday afternoon to review plans for a nearly $1.4 million project in Jennings County that will replace the County Road 560 East bridge over Otter Creek at County Road 610 East. INDOT say that both roads will be closed to traffic at the construction site, located 1.9 miles south of U.S. Highway 50, just south of Butlerville.

Dave O’Mara is the state’s contractor for building a new two-span, 200-foot-long structure with 28 feet of clear roadway side-to-side. INDOT says that county roads will be realigned at the Campbell Township site.

Closures of up to 150 days will begin in mid-June.
