The next phase of the intersection project along U.S. 31W in northern Hardin County takes effect today with a traffic pattern switch at the Blackjack Road intersection.

Work on the traffic switch will begin at 8 a.m. and should be complete by the end of the day.

Motorists crossing 31W from one side of Blackjack Road to the other will have to use the newly installed J-turn.

Traffic moving west on Blackjack Road will turn north on U.S 31W, then take the J-turn in order to move south.

Traffic moving east on Blackjack will turn south on U.S. 31W, then use the J-turn in the median to head north on 31W.

Northbound 31W traffic will use the J-turn north of Blackjack intersection and move south on 31W to access Blackjack Road on the west side. Traffic moving south on 31W will use the J-Turn south of the intersection to access Blackjack Road on the east side.
