(La Porte County, IN) - The Indiana Department of Transportation has announced lane closures on U.S. 35 between Indiana 39 and U.S. 20 beginning tomorrow.

According to INDOT, the lane closures will last for the remainder of the week for tasks related to the resurfacing that occurred earlier this year.  U.S. 35 will be reduced to one lane where work is occurring with flaggers directing traffic.

Motorists should be prepared for travel delays or consider seeking alternate routes. INDOT encourages drivers to allow extra time when driving through that area and follow traffic directions carefully.

“Motorists should slow down, exercise caution and drive distraction-free through all work zones,” INDOT said.
