SCOTT CO. — Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Dave O’Mara Contractor Inc. plans to close State Road 56 for up to 30 days starting on or after Wednesday, November 2, for a box culvert replacement project in Scott County.
Crews will be working just under two miles east of State Road 39 near Finley Firehouse Road.
Traffic will be detoured along State Road 56 to the Salem Bypass, to S.R. 60 and I-65. The project was initially scheduled to take place in October. Most recent communications stated that the project was postponed to 2023, but will now take place in November.

The $1.3 million contract was awarded to Dave O’Mara in January and also includes a similar project on S.R. 39 near Little York that was completed earlier this year. State Road 56 is anticipated to reopen in early December.
INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, avoid distractions, and use extra caution when traveling in and near active construction zones. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.
