New roundabout coming to State Road 135 and 144 in Bargersville

BARGERSVILLE, Ind. (WISH) — Bargersville will get a new roundabout thanks to an award of over $2 million in federal funds from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization.

“This project is a prime example of how federal transportation funds can be leveraged to improve safety and support community growth,” Executive Director of IMPO Anna Gremling.

Coming to the intersection of State Road 135 and State Road 144, the roundabout is being created to improve safety for drivers and pedestrians and make the intersection easier for traffic flow.

“The new roundabout will significantly reduce congestion and improve safety for our growing population,” Bargersville Town Manager Dax Norton said.

The intersection currently sees heavy traffic and significant delays, making it a critical area for improvement as Bargersville continues to develop. In addition to traffic efficiency and safety, the roundabout will incorporate sustainable infrastructure, aligning with Bargersville’s broader goals of creating an attractive environment for residents and visitors.

Construction on the project is expected to begin as soon as 2028 and is estimated to be completed by the end of 2029.
