(Dearborn County, IN) – A planned project on State Road 1 between Dover and Guilford has been postponed until late summer.
INDOT contractor Geostabilization International (GSI) was previously scheduled to close State Road 1 just south of Cook Road on March 23 to perform slide correction work.
But the Dearborn County Highway Department says the nearby creek has risen which caused concern for GSI.
The slide correction work is now slated to begin in August.
