Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is busy constructing new subdistrict facilities on Indiana 101 north of Brookville across from Hickory Woods Campground with a private lane separating the INDOT property from Hautau Tube Cutoff Systems.
According to information from Natalie Garrett, public relations director, Southeast District, INDOT, the new facility will include office space for subdistrict personnel as well as a garage area to clean, repair and maintain INDOT’s equipment. A storage area for salt will also be on site so INDOT can properly store salt and brine needed to de-ice roadways during winter operations.
Three buildings will be at the new unit.
Current completion is slated for December 2020.
INDOT will offer the current facility, near the intersection of Ninth and Mill streets in Brookville, for sale once everything is moved to the new location, Garrett said.
