(La Porte County, IN) - Another much larger stretch of Indiana 39 in La Porte County will be closed next week for maintenance.

According to the Indiana Department of Transportation, seal coating of the pavement will result in the two lane highway being closed for approximately two days from U.S. 20 to the Michigan state line.

The closure, depending on weather, will begin on or after Tuesday, INDOT said.   The official detour will follow U.S. 20 and I-94.

Currently, a short stretch of Indiana 39 is closed between the Indiana Toll Road and Tiffany Woods Drive through the end of this month due to work being conducted by the private operators of the Toll Road.
