contractor for the Shelby County Highway Department will be closing S 75 E between E 700 S and E 800 S beginning July 28.

The project at that site is to renovate a small historical bridge structure over the South Fork of Lewis Creek which is a little over 800 feet south of E 700 S.

The only address accessible from the north is 7015 S 75 E. Addresses starting with 7175 S 75 E are only accessible from the south.

This closure is scheduled to last until about Oct. 3, but that is dependent on weather during the construction work.

In another note, INDOT plans to reopen State Road 252 in Edinburgh between I-65 and the Johnson–Shelby County Line (Lind Dr / S 900 W / S Johnson County 800 E) by 6 p.m. today.
