UPDATES

The 2023 Guardrail project has begun! Several locations throughout town are getting new guardrail or guardrail repair. 2023 GUARDRAIL PROJECT SPEED TABLE Oxford Boulevard and CR 100S at Oxford, the speed table at CR 625 E, and a speed hump in Beechwood are still outstanding. Our 2023 paving contractor is going to try to get to them this year. The speed table material will be switched to concrete and completed this year if the asphalt contractor is unable to do the work. CR 100S AT ALL POINTS The South approach to the roundabout on CR 100S at All Points is being constructed, as well as a right in/right out approach on the South side of CR 100S, West of the Salt Lake

US 36

The Ronald Reagan median by the CR 1050E approach is finally complete, even after it had to be repaired after a vehicle ignored the traffic barricades and attempted to drive over the new concrete. There are some temporary traffic barrels on the new median to help deter drivers from attempting to cross over the new concrete. RONALD REAGAN

The next phase of the US 36 Added Travel Lanes project had a field check, conducted by INDOT. The anticipated construction is from Shiloh Crossing to CR 671E. Construction is anticipated to be in 2025 or later. INDOT is designing a “Half Traffic Signal” on US 36 at Harvest Landing (Costco). A Half Traffic Signal basically is for one direction, in this case eastbound to northbound, and is coordinated with an adjacent traffic signal to take advantage of lower traffic volumes when the upstream side street has a green light.

STREET SWEEPING Street sweeping is underway in the NW quadrant, moving to the SW quadrant next, then SE, and finally NE. (Perhaps a good opportunity to remind everyone that leaves should not be swept into the road. Our sweeper will have to sweep them back into their yard and it will make the process take much longer) The pedestrian signals for the bicentennial trail on CR 200N should be installed in the next month. PEDESTRIAN SIGNALS

Road roundabout. The same contractor is working on both

approaches and will also complete the asphalt trail on the north side of the roundabout on CR 100S at All Points.
