Detours

During the closures, drivers are encouraged to find alternate routes and plan extra time to travel.

  • From the airport to I-70 EB: Take the collector lanes to I-465 NB around to I-70 EB.
  • I-70 WB to the airport: Take I-465 SB around to Ronald Reagan collector lanes to get to the airport. Or continue North on I-465 to get back to I-70 WB.

INDOT says the full closures are being used to ensure safety for workers, reduce construction time, and save money.
