(La Porte, IN) - Change is coming for motorists on the south side of La Porte.

The Indiana Department of Transportation will be converting the intersection of State Road 39 and 18th St to a four-way stop on Monday.

INDOT officials said the intersection is currently a two-way stop, with 18th St traffic stopping and traffic on State Road 39 continuing through the intersection. Now vehicles traveling on either roadway will need to stop.

Motorists should exercise caution in the area while navigating the new traffic pattern, INDOT officials said.
