SHELBYVILLE, IN (June 6, 2025)– The City of Shelbyville is pleased to announce that the North Riley Highway full closure will be lifted ahead of schedule on Saturday, June 7, with the roadway reopening to traffic by 12:00 p.m. (noon).
This milestone marks the early completion of two coordinated infrastructure projects:
Bridge deck structural maintenance and resurfacing performed by the City of Shelbyville
Rail crossing and approach reconstruction completed by CSX Transportation
The early reopening is the result of efficient coordination between contractors and favorable working conditions. The City thanks residents and local employers for their patience during this impactful but necessary closure.
While the full closure will end, motorists should expect continued lane restrictions in the area due to the ongoing construction of the Michigan Road/North Riley Highway roundabout. Thru traffic will remain open and passable, but delays may occur during active work hours.
Additionally, Knauf Insulation will keep its main entrance closed and has directed staff to continue using the company’s internal detour and access the facility via the new North Riley Highway entrance.
