Federal Highway Administration July 1, 2013 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has requested FHWA approval of INDOT's proposed plan to close a 2-mile portion of I- 65 in Indiana (from I-70/I-65 south split interchange to I-70/I-65 north split interchange) for a period of 93 days, from Wednesday, August 21, 2013, to Thursday, November 21, 2013. The closure is requested to accommodate the reconstruction on the Virginia Avenue Bridge, which consists of replacing the northbound and southbound bridge girders and lowering the pavement section from south of Morris Street to north of Fletcher Avenue. The request is based on the provisions in 23 CFR 658.11 which authorizes the deletion of segments of the federally designated routes that make up the National Network designated in Appendix A of 23 CFR Part 658 upon approval by the FHWA. The FHWA seeks comments from the general public on this request submitted by INDOT for a deletion in accordance with 23 CFR 658.11(d) for the considerations discussed in this notice.
