HENDRICKS CO. – The Indiana Department of Transportation announces a bridge closure on State Road 236 over Big Walnut Creek near North Salem.

Beginning on or after Friday, March 1, crews will start the demolition of the existing bridge.

Crews will be building a new one in this location for drivers’ safety and improved mobility.

Work is expected to continue through late August.
