The Indiana Department of Transportation announces U.S. 36 will be restricted by a flagging operation starting on or after Monday, April 3, near Bainbridge.

The restrictions will be in effect from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily, from approximately 4.36-miles east of U.S. 231 to State Road 75. This will allow crews to safely perform a pavement patching operation.

The restrictions are expected to last through early August, weather permitting.

This contract was awarded to Milestone Contractors South, LLC for $2.8 million. It involves an HMA Overlay, which is a combination of asphalt cement and aggregate placed over aging pavements as a pavement preservation treatment.
