“Super-Load” Transport Will Cause Slow Travel In Jay, Allen, and DeKalb Counties, Friday

By INDOT / Stan Sollars, IPR News | Published on in Transportation

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) says to look for slow travel on some roads, this morning in northeastern Indiana.

Indiana Specialized Transport has been permitted to temporarily close portions particular highways for so-called “super-load” transportation.

The super-loads will depart Bryant in Jay County this morning at 8:30 and 9 o’clock.

INDOT says short-term closures of cross streets will take place throughout the move, and where roads are only two lanes, the highway section will be closed to allow the convoy, traveling 15 mph, to pass.

The convoy will begin on U.S. 27 northbound, out of Bryant in Jay County, then northbound to U.S. 224 eastbound through Adams County.

The convoy will continue on U.S. 224 eastbound to State Road 101 northbound, through Allen County, then north to DeKalb County toward the Ohio State line.
