INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Drivers who use I-65 to get through downtown Indianapolis need to plan for lane closures Friday night and Saturday morning, the Indiana Department of Transportation says.

Beginning around 9 p.m. Friday, crews will close the inside lanes of northbound and southbound I-65 between West 16th Street and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Street. The closure will allow workers to make repairs to a barrier wall.

INDOT expects the closure to wrap up by 7 a.m. Saturday, weather permitting.

Drivers should slow down, use caution, and avoid distractions while traveling in work zones.
