Heading to Indy Saturday from Evansville for Marching Band Semi-state.......Wondering what kind of construction and or delays that I can expect on I-70 from Terre Haute to Indy around the midday time? Thanks in advance for any advise.......

I-70 is a mess from brazil to Plainfield. Add at least 1 hour eastbound and 2 coming back westbound. I would definitely choose alternate route.

there is one lane and slow in several places from Terre Haute to Plainfield on I-70 has been several bad accidents plus there will be heavy traffic from Terre Haute to Greencastle exits do to the Parke County covered bridge fest. I would go 41 to 40 in Terre Haute then east to Indy on 40 traffic will be a little slow in Brazil due to Bridge Fest Traffic going north on st rd 59 but much safer then I-70 once you are through Brazil will be smooth sailing as long as no accidents close I-70 and traffic gets pushed off onto 40

Try I69/sr57 to sr 67 to I465 or continue straight at 465 and Kentucky will take you into town if you're going to the Lucas Oil.

Definately take 67 just north of Vincennes to Indy. We have had a contractor coming from Indy to Terre Haute on I-70 then south on 41 all week. He said the interstate is messed up with a lot of delays.

So apparently all of 465 in Indy is a "Construction Zone" with a 45 mph speed limit.....cough cough... A big Thanks goes out to ISP otherwise known as "Indiana's Finest" for issuing me a ticket today as I am following traffic flow at 65 mph and singleing me out.........Sigh...........

I know it is past Saturday, but there is single lane road in Putnam county on I-70 and could delay peoples travel. I would advise anyone to take alternate routes in that area.
