I-65 North of Indy - road condition??

I'd say avoid I-65 if you've got an alternate route. Seems like it's always under construction, and condition doesn't improve--a new section falls apart as soon as they get one spot fixed. I know there are road closures for construction between Lafayette and Indianapolis. I'd expect heavy backups for 500 weekend. If you can't find a decent alternate route try traveling at night or very early morning. Traffic on this section tends to be very heavy.

The worst thing about 65 north of Indy to Chicago is traffic goes from 90 mph to a stop and back to 90 again over and over and over again. That stretch is very frequently deadly and no I am not exaggerating. I never notice the road condition because I am so focused on traffic.

North of Lafayette can be very windy and at high wind periods truck blow-overs are not unheard of. Back ups and long stoppages are common.

If you have an alternative route do it.

Thanks. I guess we'll take the alternate route again.
