(Walkerton, IN) - Two sections of highway near Walkerton will be under construction starting Monday.

A section of State Road 23 will be reduced to one lane of travel in each direction south of town down to U.S. 30. Resurfacing work along that stretch should wrap up by late September.

Starting in June, a portion of that same route will be closed for two weeks for a pipe replacement at Rice Ditch. At that time, drivers will be detoured along U.S. 35 between highways 6 and 30.

Also starting Monday, there will be lane closures on State Road 104 northwest of Walkerton. Flaggers will direct traffic between C.R. S 675 E and County Line Rd. for approximately three weeks. High friction surface treatment will be applied to curves in that area.
