LARWILL – The Indiana Department of Transportation announced two projects are scheduled to begin on Ind. 5, Larwill, Monday. The projects will include improvements to the railroad crossing located half a mile south of U.S. 30, as well as road resurfacing from U.S. 30 to Old Trail Road. During the railroad crossing improvements, Ind. 5 will be closed to traffic between Main and North streets, Larwill. The crossing improvement is tentatively scheduled to begin Monday, and the posted detour will be U.S. 30 to Ind. 9 to Ind. 205 to Ind. 5. After the crossing improvements have been completed, one lane of Ind. 5 is scheduled to re-open to traffic on Monday, if not before. At that time, traffic will be controlled by flaggers during the resurfacing. Work should be completed by mid-May. The project was awarded to E & B Paving for $179,000.
