North Split Closure

The Indiana Department of Transportation will close the North Split interchange of I-65/70 the weekend of May 14, 2021. This project is expected to last 18 months and results in the significant rerouting of traffic for Indianapolis commuters and those visiting Butler’s campus. Please consult GPS apps such as Waze or Google Maps to determine the best route for your visit to Butler.

Heavy Truck Traffic

Heavy truck operators seeking access to Clowes Memorial Hall and the Schrott Center for the Arts and other Butler facilities must contact the Butler University Police Department (BUPD) at 317-940-9396 prior to arrival for assistance in navigating intersections and construction zones. BUPD must temporarily block traffic in order to ensure safe navigation to campus by heavy truck traffic.

  • Turn left (westbound) on 49th Street
  • Continue onto Sunset Ave. (south) and turn right into the parking lot entrance just north of 46th Street and north of the Clowes and Schrott facilities. In order to ensure safe navigation, heavy trucks must travel south in the northbound lane of Sunset Ave. Trucks must contact BUPD 317-940-9396 to arrange for a temporary lane closure.
