05/29/13 The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces the closure of U.S. 6 between U.S. 31 and Lilac Road beginning Monday, June 3rd through early September 2013. The closure is necessary to ensure driver safety while crews work on the U.S. 31/U.S. 6 interchange for the new U.S. 31 project.

A detour will take eastbound traffic south on U.S. 31, east on U.S. 30, north on S.R. 331, and back to U.S. 6. Westbound traffic will travel south on S.R. 331, west on U.S. 30, north on U.S. 31, and back to U.S. 6.
