A section of Indiana roadway that connects to U.S. 131 in St. Joseph County will be closed starting this week for about three months.
The route in question is State Road 13, just south of the Michigan/Indiana state line. Work on a bridge over Intestate 80/90 will result in the road closure. However, project officials said access to the Indiana Toll Road ramp onto and from the Toll Road – which is north of the work zone –will remain open.
A detour is in place and affects traffic south of the bridge. Indiana Department of Transportation officials said the deck of the bridge is being replaced and completion date is Sept. 19.
