We’re excited to announce Renew Richmond, your one stop to learn more about Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) road projects underway or planned in Richmond and Wayne County. Find out about the current and upcoming projects on U.S. 40 and U.S. 27 and how they will improve roads and bridges in Richmond through paving and bridge maintenance.

What to know now:

• Expect ongoing work to rebuild more than a mile of U.S. 27 between South O Street and North B Street to be completed by mid-2023.
• Roadwork along U.S. 40 next year is expected to repave the westbound lanes, known locally as North A Street, and replace curb ramps.
• Starting next year, the U.S. 27 bridge will be replaced over the Norfolk Southern rail line and city streets north of downtown Richmond. It’s expected to be closed for about two years with the detour following U.S. 40 and I-70.

(Anticipated construction schedules are subject to change based on contractor and material availability.)
