Main Street Roundabout

The Town of Whitestown has a strong commitment to providing a safe and efficient road network to reflect the growth the community has seen over the past several years.

One of the projects includes the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Albert S. White Drive and Main Street. The intersection is currently open to traffic, as well as the Tartan Trail entrance to Walker Farms. Landscaping work is expected to be complete by the second week of May.

The addition of a HAWK signal near the entrance of the new library will happen over the Summer.

Project details

The project includes the reconstruction of the four approaches and the existing two-way stop-controlled intersection at CR 400 S (Albert S. White Drive) and CR 650 E (Main Street) to a multilane roundabout.

Landscaping

The landscaping of the roundabout will include rough-cut limestone blocks surrounded by shrubs and grasses.
