INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — State highway officials are planning complete closures lasting 17 days for a section of Interstate 65 on Indianapolis’ northwest side.

The Indiana Department of Transportation says it will shut down the northbound and southbound lanes during separate periods to mill and repave the roadway.
