Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Paul H. Rohe Company plans to close a section of S.R. 3 in Decatur County on or after Tuesday, June 22, for a culvert replacement following a pipe failure last week.

The road will close between C.R. 650 N. and C.R. 1100 S./C.R. 800 N., and is scheduled to reopen by end of day on Friday, June 25, weather permitting.

The official detour route will follow I-74 to S.R. 244 at Exit 119.

The culvert is located within the current asphalt resurface project on S.R. 3 between I-74 and the Decatur-Rush County line that got underway earlier this year. Daytime lane closures and flagging are expected to continue throughout the summer.
