(Batesville, Ind.) - Indiana Department of Transportation contractor Sunesis Construction plans to begin clearing work Monday, Jan. 31, ahead of a $225,000 pipe lining project on the westbound I-74 on-ramp in Batesville (Exit 149).

Drivers should slow down, use extra caution, and drive distraction-free in and near all work zones. Construction crews and equipment will be active in the area. All work is weather dependent, and schedules are subject to change.
