ALLEN COUNTY, IN – INDOT announces the beginning of construction of the quadrant roadway at the intersection of State Road 930 and Maplecrest Road.

Starting on or after March 17, crews will begin working on the quadrant roadway. During construction, a majority of the work will take place off the roadway in the southeast portion of the intersection. Drivers should watch for lane shifts and narrow lanes on S.R. 930 during construction. Work on the project is expected to last until the beginning of October. All work is weather-dependent and schedules are subject to change.

INDOT encourages drivers to consider safety for all by slowing down, using extra caution, and driving distraction-free when traveling in and around all work zones.

About Quadrant Roadways

Quadrant roadways help improve safety at intersections by restricting left turns from the main intersection. Left turns are moved to the intersections with the new roadway. The new intersections will be signalized and coordinated with the main intersection to allow for consistent flow through the signals.

Corcoran was found guilty of the 1997 murders of his brother, his sister’s fiancé, and two of their friends at his house in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and was sentenced to death in 1999.

Previously, Corcoran was charged in 1992 with murdering both of his parents, Jack Corcoran, 53, and Kathryn Corcoran, 47, in Steuben County, Indiana, when he was 16. Due to circumstantial evidence, he was acquitted of all charges.

Attorney General Todd Rokita issued the following statement on December 18, 2024 following Corcoran’s execution:

“Early this morning, Indiana conducted its first execution since 2009. Joseph Corcoran’s case worked its way through our judicial system and today he finally paid his debt to society as justice was provided to his victims.

“A jury recommended and a judge imposed a sentence of death for the senseless murders of four people. My office fought to defend that sentence and state law every step of the way, and the Indiana Department of Correction carried it out professionally.”
