IDI is working with the Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority (ISCBA) to provide information about traffic restrictions in conjunction with the demolition of the RCA Dome and expansion of the Indiana Convention Center. These traffic alert notices will be sent periodically throughout the project to keep you informed of lane closures that impact traffic on neighboring streets.
Capitol Avenue will have the west two lanes closed between Georgia and South streets beginning May 12 and continuing for several months. The sidewalk on the west side of Capitol between Georgia and South streets will also be closed during this time.
In addition, the west curb lane of Capitol Avenue will be closed between Maryland and Georgia streets for loading and unloading of vehicles associated with the Do It Best Convention, May 12-22.
Maryland Street will have the south curb lane closed from approximately 100 feet east of West Street to Missouri Street beginning June 1. The sidewalk in this area on the south side of Maryland Street will also be closed during this project.
South Street will remain closed between Capitol Avenue and Missouri Street until mid-August. The Lucas Oil Stadium underground pedestrian walkway is being constructed under South Street. East bound traffic is being detoured north on Missouri Street to Maryland Street, east to Capitol Avenue, then south to South Street. West bound traffic is being detoured south on Capitol Avenue to McCarty Street, west to Missouri Street, then north to South Street. Signage indicating the detour routes is posted. This project also involves sidewalk closures on South Street and Capitol Avenue.
For two weeks beginning Thursday, April 3, the City of Indianapolis Department of Public Works (DPW) will implement significant lane restrictions on Washington Street and College Avenue.
Westbound Washington Street will be reduced to one lane from Southeastern Avenue to College Avenue and right turns from westbound Washington to northbound College will be not be permitted. Drivers impacted by the Washington Street lane closures should use Michigan Street (one-way westbound) or New York Street (one-way eastbound) as alternate routes.
College Avenue (one-way northbound) also will be reduced to one lane between Washington and Market streets. Drivers impacted by the College Avenue lane closures should use Delaware Street (one-way northbound) or East and New Jersey streets as alternate routes.
Additionally, Davidson Street between Washington and Market streets will be closed April 3 through April 16.
Beginning April 1, the City of Indianapolis Department of Public Works will close Ohio Street just west of Herman Street to Pine Street and Pine Street between Market and Ohio streets. These streets are east of I-65/70. The closure will facilitate the relocation of utility lines and other work related to the new interstate interchange being constructed at Washington Street and the removal of the Market Street ramp.
DETOUR ROUTES
Drivers impacted by the Pine and Ohio Street closures should take:
- Arsenal Avenue north to Michigan Street, west to East Street, south to Market Street. (Market Street has two-way traffic, back to College Avenue).
Note: Temporary double yellow striping will be installed for two-way traffic on Ohio Street between Herman Street and Arsenal Avenue for local traffic only. Additional signage on the cross streets will be installed to notify drivers of the conversion to two-way traffic.
INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS
A portion of Ohio Street and all of Pine Street will be replaced after new storm drainage infrastructure, curbs, sidewalks and pavement are installed.
Completion of Ohio and Pine Street improvements is expected in late June, however the closure may remain in place due to additional upcoming sewer and drainage work in the area.
PROJECT OPEN MARKET
The improvements to Pine and Ohio streets are part of Project Open Market, a city initiative to spur investment and create economic opportunity on the Near-eastside by removing the Market Street I-65/70 interstate ramp and building a new interchange along East Washington Street. The multi-million dollar project, financed mostly through federal grant dollars, will "open up" Market Street for new business opportunities and create a more pedestrian friendly corridor that will better connect the Near-Eastside to Downtown Indianapolis.
Please plan your travel through Downtown accordingly.
