In La Porte County, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) says it will host a public hearing regarding a proposed intersection improvement project at State Road 2 and County Road 500 West near the city of La Porte. INDOT says the hearing will provide an opportunity for the public to interact with the project team, review the unique features of the proposed intersection improvement project, and provide official public comment on the preferred alternative. Project documents are available for review at bit.ly/SR2CR500W . INDOT says the need for this project is the high frequency of crashes at the intersection of S.R. 2 and C.R. 500 W. The preferred alternative will modify the existing intersection by constructing a single-lane roundabout with a truck apron. The hearing is scheduled to take place Monday, November 17, 2025, at the La Porte County Public Library Exchange on Indiana Avenue, La Porte, IN. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m. to allow the public to view displays and talk with the project team. A presentation will be given at 6 p.m., with the public comment session held directly after. INDOT is offering livestreams of all public meetings and hearings.
