More Information: Traffic Configuration Change for Bluffton Road Bridge Reconstruction Will Likely Cause Delays
Public is urged to seek an alternate route beginning July 8 – OctoberFort Wayne, Indiana (July 1, 2025) – The new traffic patterns that will begin on July 8 for the Bluffton Road Bridge reconstruction will require traffic to be reduced to one lane of traffic at a time and will likely cause significant delays. It is highly recommended that the public seek an alternate route while this traffic pattern is in operation through October.
- Only one direction of travel will be allowed on the bridge at one time.
- Red lights at signals will be significantly longer than a standard signalized intersection to provide time for traffic to clear the construction zone.
- A new signal head will be installed for eastbound Bluffton Road 600 feet in front of the bridge to allow westbound traffic to clear the construction zone.
- Expect significant delays to cross the Bluffton Road Bridge, and at the intersection of Bluffton Road and Broadway, due to the new traffic pattern.
We ask for your patience during this phase of construction.
