The City of Fishers launched its 2026 construction season with $12.4 million in new roadway and infrastructure investments designed to enhance safety, improve traffic flow, and support continued growth.
The City started the season with the completion of the State Road 37 Improvement Project, wrapping up the $180 million conversion of the signaled thoroughfare to above-grade interchanges through Fishers’ intersections.
“As Fishers continues to grow, we’re making intentional investments in infrastructure that not only address today’s needs but support our community well into the future,” said Hatem Mekky, City of Fishers’ Director of Engineering. “From corridor improvements to intersection upgrades and resurfacing, this work is critical to enhancing mobility, improving safety, and maintaining the high quality of our roadways.”

As part of Fishers’ long-term vision, these projects are designed to create a more connected, accessible, and efficient transportation network for residents, businesses, and visitors, supporting daily commutes, economic development, and overall quality of place.
During this busy season, motorists are encouraged to plan ahead by using Waze or Google Maps, allow for extra travel time, and use caution when traveling through work zones to prioritize construction worker safety.

Upcoming construction projects include:
Corridor & Community Revitalization Projects
Through targeted corridor and community revitalization efforts, Fishers is transforming key areas of the city by improving connectivity, supporting redevelopment, and enhancing access to neighborhoods, businesses, and community destinations.
Southeastern Parkway & Olio Road Roundabout
Begin: On or after June 15, 2026 | Completion: November 2026
Driver Tips: Roundabout movements will be restricted throughout reconstruction. Full closure of certain segments will occur later this summer. Through traffic should follow posted detours or seek alternate routes. Local business access remains open, but exit/entry may vary during construction.
The City of Fishers is reconstructing the roundabout at Southeastern Parkway and Olio Road to improve safety and traffic flow at one of the region’s busiest intersections, which has a history of frequent non-fatal crashes. The project will make it easier for drivers to choose the correct lane sooner, improve traffic movement, and support growth in northeast Fishers and regional travel between Fishers, Noblesville, Hamilton County, and surrounding destinations.
Phase 1 begins on or after June 15. The roundabout will remain open in all directions with periodic lane restrictions while crews improve 136th Street, permanently make it two-way, and build a new connection road between 136th Street and Southeastern Parkway. Later phases will include detours and partial closures, with nearby businesses remaining open and accessible throughout construction. Emergency access and access to IU Health Fishers and Ascension St. Vincent will be maintained throughout all phases of construction. Learn more at FishersIN.gov/Olio.
Allisonville Road Corridor & 116th Street Improvements
In progress | Completion: October 2026
Driver Tips: Lane and left-turn movements will be limited and/or restricted. Use alternate routes for through-access. Local business access remains open.
Work is underway along the Allisonville Road corridor as part of the City’s broader revitalization efforts to enhance safety, mobility, and access to westside neighborhoods and businesses. At 116th Street, improvements include lengthening left-turn lanes for each direction, replacing sidewalks and ADA ramps, and upgrading traffic signals to improve traffic flow and safety.
While originally planned as a roundabout, additional analysis determined these improvements could be achieved through less invasive roadway modifications. The intersection remains open during construction, with lane shifts, restrictions, and slower travel times expected, especially during peak hours. Access to local businesses will remain open for the duration of the project. Construction is expected to be completed in October. Learn more at FishersIN.gov/Allisonville.
96th Street & Cyntheanne Road
In progress | Completion: August 2026
Driver Tips: Full closure of intersection within project area. Follow posted detours or seek alternate routes.
Construction of a new roundabout is underway, requiring a full closure of the intersection through August. The project is designed to improve traffic flow and enhance safety.
Olio Road Resurfacing
Begin: Summer 2026 | Completion: November 2026
Driver Tips: Lane restrictions in place for each resurfacing segment. Use alternate routes for through-access. Local business access remains open.
Hamilton County Highway Department will resurface Olio Road from 96th Street to north of 104th Street to south of the Geist Reservoir bridge, improving pavement conditions along this key corridor.

USA Parkway Expansion
Begin: Summer 2026 | Completion: Fall 2026
Driver Tips: Lane restrictions will be in effect. Local business access remains open.
This project will widen the roadway to two lanes in each direction on USA Parkway Drive from 106th Street north to IKEA, improving traffic flow and accommodating increased travel demand in this high-growth area.
The expansion will occur within the existing roadway by narrowing the median, allowing for increased capacity while minimizing impacts to surrounding properties and infrastructure. Additional project details will be shared on Drive Fishers and Nextdoor as they become available.

Resurfacing will occur on Promise Road (126th Street to 131st Street), Howe Road (131st Street to 141st Street), and 131st Street (Cumberland Road to Promise Road) to improve pavement conditions and extend roadway life. Lane restrictions and short-term closures can be expected, with updates shared through HOA leaders and on Nextdoor.
