The last gap of pavement on Ind. 15, north from Warsaw, was completed Wednesday morning. As soon as the highway is opened, a fine road north of this city into Northern Michigan will be available. The last gap to be closed was the stretch at the town limits at Leesburg.

When the road is opened there will still be two small detours, one at Milford Junction and the other at New Paris, where overhead bridges are being constructed over the B&O and Wabash railroads.
