Clearing work begins next week at SR 46 bridge over Logan Creek

DEARBORN COUNTY, IN — Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Paul H. Rohe Company plans to begin tree clearing operations on or after Monday, February 28, at the State Road 46 bridge over Logan Creek in Dearborn County prior to a $136,000 erosion control project.

Once the clearing is complete, utility relocation work will take place.

The erosion control project is estimated to begin in late summer or early fall when the contractor will replace riprap and other materials under the bridge, which is located just under three miles east of State Road 1 near Chapplelow Hill Road.

Lane closures and flagging are possible during all phases of the project.

The contract was awarded in January to Paul H. Rohe Company with completion expected by late October.

Motorists should watch for truck traffic entering and exiting the worksite and are also reminded to slow down, use extra caution, and drive without distractions.

All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
