City's plans for 2018 Road Improvement Projects

With the arrival of spring and warmer temperatures, local road construction will soon follow. In order to prepare you for various restrictions and detours, the City of Carmel is announcing the tentative construction schedule for 2018. We hope you can use this information to plan ahead to make sure your regular routes are available and if not, to determine your best detour before you head out the door.

While the City is providing a snapshot of projects planned for 2018, please remember there are many variables that affect the exact start and finish dates. We will send notices of closures or detours closer to the beginning of construction. The projects below are listed under the season in which they will begin. (See map)
