Evansville, Ind. – Motorists should be prepared for big changes on the Lloyd this week.

Here’s the expected schedule, weather permitting: 

Monday, June 16: Prep work begins along the Lloyd at Cross Pointe Boulevard and Burkhardt Road to begin the construction of dual displaced left turns at each intersection. Interior lane closures will be in place while crews remove concrete medians.

Tuesday, June 17: Left turns from eastbound Lloyd to northbound Stockwell will be temporarily prohibited for approximately one day to prepare for the opening of the redesigned Stockwell intersection.

Wednesday, June 18: After the morning peak travel period, crews will switch traffic to the new redesigned intersection at Stockwell Road and the Lloyd. Law enforcement officers will be on site to encourage traffic calming. With the new design, eastbound motorists wanting to go north on Stockwell will enter left turn lanes shortly after crossing Vann Avenue, well BEFORE the main intersection. Pay attention to signs and pavement markings to avoid missing your opportunity to go north. Westbound motorists wanting to go south on Stockwell will enter the left turn lane AFTER crossing through the Stockwell intersection.

Thursday, June 19: Rolling closures are planned as new pavement striping is added to the Lloyd between the Pigeon Creek Bridge and Stockwell Road.

Wednesday, June 18: Middle Mt. Vernon Road on the north side will be closed on this day or shortly after and will be closed for at least 14 days. The detour will be Schutte Road.

Ongoing work:

• Westbound University Parkway double-ramp closures continue through mid-July.
• Ramps for westbound Lloyd Expressway onto southbound U.S. 41 and southbound U.S. 41 onto the westbound Lloyd closed for approximately three weeks.

Beginning on or around Thursday, December 19, crews will shift southbound U.S. 41 traffic in Evansville from southbound lanes to the northbound side of the roadway. This switch will occur between Diamond Avenue and The Lloyd Expressway.

This lane switch is part of a project to reconstruct U.S. 41 in this area. Movement to the recently reconstructed northbound lanes will allow the southbound reconstruction to begin. Traffic in both directions will be separated by delineators.

During this phase of the project, left turns from southbound traffic will be restricted at Morgan Avenue, Columbia Street, and Virginia Street. Southbound traffic wishing to turn left is encouraged to utilize the cloverleaf interchange at The Lloyd Expressway as a detour. This project phase is expected to remain in place through May 2025, depending on the weather.
