The Indiana Department of Transportation announces State Road 236 will close in both directions on or after Friday, June 10 between N. County Line Rd. 900 E. and West St. near North Salem for construction work.

Starting July 19, S.R. 236 will close between U.S. 231 and Rush St. in Roachdale for additional work in Putnam County.

The official detour follows S.R. 75 to U.S. 36 to U.S. 231 back to S.R. 236.

This project was awarded to Milestone Contractors L.P. for $9.1 million. This project will complete a cold in-place recycle and spans from U.S. 231 to just west of S.R. 75.

The section from east of Roachdale to the Hendricks/Putnam County line was completed last year. The portion through the town of Roachdale is nearly complete. Some short term asphalt paving work through town will be completed under flagging as part of this construction phase.
