Dear All,

While I know that most of you probably will not be traveling on I – 65 south of downtown, I still thought this information was worth sharing for those who may be traveling that way. There may be a noticeable increase in traffic on I – 465 here on the west side as those who travel through Indianapolis on I – 65 may be using I – 465 on our side of town to head north of Marion County. If traveling through a work zone, please observe the reduced speed limits and be patient if you have delays.

Feel free to forward this information, especially to those who you know this may affect.

Sincerely,

Janice McHenry

City-County Councillor District 6
