NORTH VERNON, Ind. – The Walnut Street Project in North Vernon is progressing as planned. The contractor has made necessary underground tie-ins over the last couple of weeks. Phase 1A is still scheduled to be completed by this Tuesday, April 5.
Phase 1B will then begin with Madison Avenue reopening to traffic and the Jackson/Walnut streets intersection closing. It is estimated that Phase 1B will take 90 days.
Pedestrian traffic will still be maintained by the contractor throughout the project on at least one side of Walnut Street, within the construction limits.
