Work Resumes at Exits 3 and 10 on Indiana Toll Road

ITR Concession Company LLC (ITRCC) is announcing that work will resume in the area of Exit 10 in Gary, Indiana, as part of the Northwest Indiana Bridge Rehabilitation Project. The final item in this area to be completed is the upgrade to the lighting infrastructure. To complete the upgrade, single-lane closures and shoulder closures on the mainline are needed, in addition to short-term closures of the Exit 10 ramps. These closures will be taking place periodically over the next several months. There will also be toll plaza aesthetic and safety enhancement projects taking place during the same time. 

For specific details about the ramp closures including planned detours, please follow ITRCC on social media at @IndianaTollRoad on Facebook or X (Twitter). There will also be information available under the travel advisories section of the ITRCC website: www.indianatollroad.org/travel-advisory.

“We are excited to finalize the lighting upgrades and safety enhancements on this project,” says Rick Fedder, Chief Operating Officer of ITRCC. “We appreciate the traveling public’s continued patience as we complete the final pieces to this important project prior to the summer travel season.”    

Work also continues on the Northwest Indiana Bridge Rehabilitation Project in the areas of the 108th Street ramp and mile marker 0 in Hammond, Indiana, with single lane closures.   

In addition to the Northwest Indiana Bridge Rehabilitation Project, ITRCC is improving pavement conditions along the toll road in the areas of 129th Avenue in Hammond, Indiana, and Lake Street in Gary, Indiana. Beginning on Monday, March 18th, the Exit 3 westbound on-ramp in Hammond, Indiana, will be closed until mid-April to allow for the improvements to be made. The planned detour route is as follows: Take IN 912/Cline Avenue West to IN 41/Calumet Avenue. Go south on IN 41/Calumet Avenue to 141st Street. Then go east on 141st Street to the Toll Road Entrance. 

Single-lane closures will take place intermittently in the area of Lake Street throughout March and April.
