INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Southbound I-465 on the southeast and east sides of Indianapolis will be shut down at the end of the May for concrete pavement and bridge deck patching work.

Indiana Department of Transportation plans to close I-465 southbound between I-70 and I-65 for the road work.

Construction is expected to take about a month with the road re-opening by the end of June.

The detour route is I-70 westbound to I-65 southbound.

A news release from INDOT said, “This is the second of six parts for I-465 restoration work between I-65 and U.S. 31 on the east side of Indianapolis. This work is expected to be complete in spring 2025.”

These ramps will also be closed starting at the dates and times listed: 

• Pendleton Pike eastbound and westbound to I-465 southbound, 9 p.m. May 30.
• I-70 eastbound and westbound to I-465 southbound: 7 p.m. May 31.
• Washington Street/U.S. 40 eastbound and westbound to I-465 southbound: 9 a.m. May 31.
• Brookville Road/U.S. 52 eastbound and westbound to I-465 southbound: 9 a.m. May 31.
• Shadeland Avenue southbound to I-465 southbound: 9 a.m. June 1.
• Southeastern Avenue/Old U.S. 421 to I-465 southbound: 9 a.m. June 1.
• I-74 westbound to I-465 southbound: 9 a.m. June 1.
• Emerson Avenue northbound and southbound to I-465 westbound, 9 a.m. June 1.

INDOT says that the red on the map only means southbound closure. Traffic between 46th Street and I-70, or the yellow on the map, will be restricted to three southbound lanes during the week, and on weekends, it will be closed to two.
