Indiana Department of Transportation contractor 5 Star Company Inc. is scheduled to close a portion of State Road 7 between Vernon and Dupont on or after Friday, May 1, to complete a box culvert replacement project.
The closure will take place just north of the Muscatatuck River located between County Road 300 South and County Road 500 South. S.R. 7 is expected to reopen in early June, weather permitting. During the closure, motorists should use the official detour route which follows S.R. 3 to S.R. 256 to S.R. 56/62 back to S.R. 7.
This project is part of a contract awarded to 5 Star in August 2025. INDOT reminds drivers to slow down, use extra caution, and avoid distractions when traveling in and near work zones. All work is weather dependent and schedules are subject to change.
