VIGO COUNTY, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation announce Tuesday the contract for the pedestrian bridge between West Terre Haute and Terre Haute was awarded to Beaty Construction for $6.6 million. 

Watch for lane closures on eastbound U.S. 150 (National Ave.) beginning this week for utility relocation. These closures will take place daily between 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m, weather permitting.

The pedestrian bridge will be just over one mile in length and have a 10 ft. clear space for walking or biking with overhead lighting and will have an overlook area near the midpoint looking out over the Wabashiki Fish and Wildlife area.

The project is scheduled for completion in October of 2021.
