WHITELAND, Ind. - A total reconstruction project of the intersection of Whiteland Road and Glidden Boulevard will start on April 1 and continue through mid-July..   

Crossroads Engineers, of Beech Grove, is the development consulting firm handling the project and officials say it will include:   

  • Converting the stop-controlled intersection to a modern single lane roundabout
  • New intersection lighting and landscape features
  • New asphalt, concrete pavement, curb, and storm sewers

Utility relocations have already been taking place at this intersection, including relocating lines that might be impacted by the project.    

While the construction is planned to start April 1, the road will not be closed until April 16 when Phase II begins..

From April 16 through July 16, Whiteland Road will be closed west of Bob Glidden and there will be no access to Glidden Blvd. or I-65 from the west via Whiteland Road. All access to Bob Glidden Boulevard and the interstate will have to occur from the east.

All dates are weather dependent. During construction, there will be both local and truck detours.
