Rush County, In. — Officials from the Indiana Department of Transportation say crews from Rieth-Riley Construction will begin bridge work on State Road 44 in Homer, west of Rushville, on or after April 2.
The bridge is located on SR 44 over Mud Creek between County Roads 715 and 725, about 7.5 miles west of Rushville.
The bridge will be closed for up to 120 days. Crews will be placing clearing and advance warning signs up next week. During construction, traffic will be detoured via I-74, SR 9, and U.S. 52. SR 44 should be reopened to traffic in August 2018, weather permitting.
