Road Construction Projects

INDOT’s State Road 15 and 120 improvement project is scheduled to start March 10. Reith Riley (RR) is the contractor.

INDOT project moving to phase 3 Monday August 31, 2026

South Division Street ( SR 15 S) from the proximity of the RR crossing to the intersection at Vistula will be closed. Lane restrictions will be implemented at the intersection of Division and Vistula, slowing traffic movement.  

No access across South Division Street in the construction zone will be allowed.

Access to Mancino’s and Bailey’s will be from Elkhart and St. Joseph Streets using Ponderosa instead of S. Division Street. Or from Charles using Main Street.

This phase is scheduled to be completed in late November. 20 days are allocated to construct stormwater infrastructure.

Construction on E Vistula (Main Street) between  the two stop lights will be substantially complete Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

December 7. 2026 construction ends. SR 120 construction west of the stop light will start in spring of 2027.

During construction access to side streets, businesses, and residences will remain available. Except for short periods when construction activity is being done at the access point. RR will have a person contacting every owner of property in the construction zones. There will be a RR contact person to call if you have questions or concerns.  The Town Manager is also an option.

A source of current information will be on the Town’s phone app. Search for Our Town Bristol Indiana, download the app and sign in. It’s a free service and will provide you with the most recent and up to date construction information.
