LAKE COUNTY, Ind. - The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces the ramp from northbound I-65 to eastbound I-80/94 (the Frank Borman Expressway) will be closed from midnight to 5 a.m. Oct. 6. This will allow crews to move the ramp into a new configuration.

During the ramp closure a posted detour will direct northbound I-65 traffic to take I-80/94 west to the ramps at Grant Street to I-80/94 east.

This work is in relation to the $97 million Major Moves project widening the Borman between State Road 53 (Broadway) and Central Avenue in Lake County.

Between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. Oct. 4-10, additional lane restrictions may take place between Broadway and Central Avenue. Between midnight and 5 a.m. two lanes in each direction may be restricted and the ramp from northbound I-65 to westbound I-80/94 may be closed. This ramp will not close the night of Oct. 5-6. During the ramp closure, a posted detour will direct traffic to take eastbound I-80/94 to the clover leaf ramps at State Road 51 (Ripley Street) to I-80/94 west.

The work schedule is subject to change in the event of inclement weather. INDOT reminds motorists to use caution and consider worker safety when driving through a construction zone. For the latest news and information about INDOT, please visit www.in.gov/indot.
