(GIBSON CO.) - Today, at approximately 3:15 p.m., hundreds of motorcycles participating in the “Run for the Wall” will be making a rest stop at the Flying J truck stop located at U.S. 41 and County Road 1250 South. The motorcyclists left Ontario, CA, on May 13 and are riding to visit “The Wall” in Washington D.C.
Indiana State Police and Gibson County Sheriff's Department will be shutting down the north and southbound lanes of U.S. 41 near I-64 when the motorcycles exit I-64 to northbound US. 41. The motorcycles will then turn west onto County Road 1250 South into the Flying J truck stop. Troopers anticipate the highway to be closed for approximately 15 minutes.
At approximately 4 p.m. the southbound lanes of U.S. 41 at County Road 1250 South and eastbound I-64 at U.S. 41 will be shutdown to allow the motorcyclists to safely enter U.S. 41 and then eastbound I-64 to their next destination. U.S. 41 southbound and I-64 eastbound lanes will be closed for approximately 15 minutes.
Emergency traffic will be allowed through during the closures. Motorists should plan ahead and expect brief delays.
