Flooding Closes Four Roads in County

Posted
Four roads in the county are closed due to flooding and another 38 are plagued by high water, Highway Superintendent Scott Tilden said this morning.
CR 700S is impassable from CR 875W to 1000W; County Farm Road is closed from Ind. 14 to CR 1200S; CR 300E closed from CR 600S to 700S; and CR 250W closed from CR 700N to 900N, according to a highway department list Tilden provided. The closures of the roads are marked by signs and barricades on either side of the flooded section, he said, while most roads with standing water are marked with flashing barricades.
Assistant Highway Superintendent Steve Moriarty relayed the advice of Emergency Management Director Ed Rock when dealing with flooded roads: “Turn around, don’t drown.”
