WHITE AND CASS COUNTIES, Ind. – Indiana Department of Transportation maintenance crews will conduct seal coating operations on U.S. 24 between State Road 39 and U.S. 35 beginning on or after Monday, June 1, 2026.

U.S. 24 will be closed to traffic in the area where work is occurring during the hours of 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. over the course of four days. Motorists should utilize the detour or seek alternate routes while this work is ongoing. The official detour will follow State Road 39, State Road 119, State Road 16 and U.S. 35.

This work is weather sensitive so the schedule is subject to change. 

Seal coat projects treat the pavement surface with liquid asphalt material covered by crushed stone to provide a new roadway surface and prevent future deterioration. Seal coating provides waterproofing, crack sealing and improved traction. The roadway will also be fog sealed, which is a light layer of asphalt over the stone to help lock it in and also reduce dust. Learn more about the process on the INDOT website here.
