FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) – Drivers are getting a heads up about a month-long closure of lanes downtown near Lafayette and Superior streets.

Starting Monday, Feb. 27, the left two lanes of the bridge at the intersection of Superior and Lafayette/US 27 will be closed, INDOT Northeast said on Facebook.
