S.R. 1 to Close Over Little Duck Creek, Reopens Over Butlers Run

(Franklin County, IN) – INDOT contractor Paul H. Rohe Company plans to close State Road 1 over Little Duck Creek in Franklin County on or after Monday, October 7, to complete a box culvert replacement project.

Meanwhile, State Road 1 has reopened over Butlers Run south of Little Duck Creek.

The closure will take place approximately seven miles north of Brookville and is expected to be complete by mid-December, weather permitting.

During the closure, motorists should use the official detour route which follows State Road 101 to State Road 44 to State Road 1 in Connersville.

This project is part of a $6.7 million contract awarded to Paul H. Rohe in March 2023. The contract includes four district bridge projects.

INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, use extra caution and avoid distractions when traveling near work zones.

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