Evansville, Ind. – Starting Wednesday, April 23, 2025, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) will close the west approach to U.S. 41 from Morgan Avenue in Evansville. This closure is part of an ongoing project aimed at reconstructing the west approach to U.S. 41, a key route through Vanderburgh County.
The closure is expected to last approximately one month, weather permitting. Motorists are advised to plan ahead for detours and allow for extra travel time during this period.
The construction work is a segment of a larger project to rebuild U.S. 41 through Evansville, which will improve traffic flow and safety along the busy corridor. As part of the project, crews will work on the west approach, which connects Morgan Avenue to U.S. 41.
INDOT is urging drivers to exercise caution and adhere to posted speed limits as they navigate through the work zones. In addition, motorists are reminded to slow down, watch for stopped traffic, and eliminate distractions while driving through the area.
With the work scheduled to continue for about a month, the department is advising the public to stay informed on any changes to the closure or alternate routes. For more information, travelers can check the INDOT website or follow local news outlets for updates on the ongoing project.
Local officials encourage all drivers to remain patient as improvements to U.S. 41 are made to benefit both commuters and residents of the area.
