Drivers asked to ‘know before you go’ for holiday, Final Four weekend

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Basketball fans traveling to Indianapolis for this weekends games and events are being asked to “know before you go” about road work.

Three of the teams in the Final Four are only about five hours away by car from Indianapolis. Motorists should expect to see more traffic for the holiday weekend and the Final Four.

However, drivers will still see orange construction barrels and barricades in some areas.
