SWITZERLAND COUNTY, Ind.— Milestone Contractors, L.P. plans to implement full closures along S.R. 129 starting this week in Switzerland County to perform subgrade stabilization work as part of an $11 million full-depth pavement reclamation contract that began earlier this year. 

The road closed to thru traffic between Pleasant and Vevay in April, but local access has been maintained for residents in the area. During upcoming work, sections of S.R. 129 will be closed to all traffic for work to take place across both lanes of the highway. Closures are scheduled as follows, but may change based on weather and other factors:

• Monday, July 19 to Saturday, July 24 (7 a.m. to 6 p.m.): S.R. 129 closed  to all traffic between Bursot Road and Long Run Road

The contract is currently expected to be complete by late September. The official detour will continue to follow S.R. 56 and S.R. 250.
