Natural gas odor possible in the area of South Russell Street as utility work continues

Updated July 14, 2020 to reflect a new title and information — originally titled "Section of sidewalk along South Russell Street closed for utility work"

As work continues on the eastern sidewalk along South Russell Street between Lilly Hall of Life Sciences (LILY) and Life Science Ranges (LSR), there may be a natural gas odor in the area. The possibility for odor is expected to last all day today (July 14).

There will also be temporary lane restrictions along South Russell Street while Vectren conducts this utility work.

Work in this area is expected to be complete by next Friday (July 24).

Pedestrians and motorists should continue to exercise caution in the area and obey posted signs and flaggers.
