The Indiana Department of Transportation announces that bridge maintenance is scheduled for S.R. 19 over Wilhelm-Kurtz Ditch in Kosciusko County, south of the City of Nappannee. S.R. 19 is expected to close on or after Monday, Aug. 27, weather permitting.
The closure, which will allow contractors to complete a bridge deck overlay, is scheduled to take place between C.R. W 1350 N and West Hepton Road. Access to homes and businesses will be maintained throughout the work. The official state detour for the closure will be U.S. 6 to S.R 331 to U.S. 30. The road may be closed up to 90 calendar days.
Work on the S.R.19 bridge over Wilhelm-Kurtz Ditch is expected to continue through late October, weather permitting. The contract was awarded to Northern Indiana Construction Co., Inc., for $2.2 million and includes the rehabilitation of several structures throughout the District.
