Work part of INDOT’s SR 3/Lima Road lane widening project

The Indiana Department of Transportation Fort Wayne District is scheduled to reopen Till Road between Coldwater and Lima roads at 6 p.m. Thursday. Starting at 6 a.m. Friday, Wallen Road between Lima and Coldwater roads will close for approximately two weeks for the reconstruction of the east approach onto Lima and the installation of storm sewer lines. Both are weather permitting.

Drivers should use Cook and Coldwater roads as alternate routes during the closure. Local traffic can access Wallen Road via Coldwater.

This closure is part of an INDOT added travel lanes project on Lima Road/S.R. 3, which extends from Ludwig Road to Dupont Road.

The 2.88-mile added travel lanes project includes three northbound and three southbound lanes, raised center curb median separating opposing traffic, curb/gutter, closed drainage system, inlets, sewer pipes, and an 8-foot-wide multiuse path on both sides. Project will be complete in 2011.
