CLARK COUNTY / SCOTT COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces that construction is anticipated to begin for Safer Drive 65 in late summer 2025. The Safer Drive 65 project will extend an added travel lane along northbound and southbound I-65 from the current end of a third lane in each direction near Blue Lick Road in Clark County.

After a multi-step procurement process, INDOT recently selected the design-build contractor E&B Paving, Inc. and Milestone Contractors Joint Venture for the project. Improvements include added travel lanes and pavement reconstruction from Blue Lick Road in Clark County to State Road 56 in Scott County. These improvements will enhance safety and improve mobility in the area.

The Safer Drive 65 project schedule is being finalized, but construction is anticipated to begin in late summer 2025 with completion currently scheduled for winter 2027.
