Road closure
Your commutes may face a little trouble Monday. INDOT will restrict traffic at the single-lane ramp that connects U.S. 31 to southbound Ind. 931 on the northside of Kokomo. The restrictions are due to remedial repairs along the 200-foot pavement section and will require full closure of the ramp at different times throughout the day. Restricted traffic will be in effect from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday.
