Hamilton County opens new 146th St. & Allisonville Rd. interchange; awards $39.9M Hazel Dell contract to Carmel-based Gradex
Hamilton County held a ribbon-cutting on Sept. 14, 2026, for the new grade-separated interchange at 146th Street and Allisonville Road, which has been open to traffic for several months. County officials also awarded a $39.9 million contract to Carmel-based Gradex to build the next grade-separated interchange at 146th and Hazel Dell Parkway, with work set to begin in fall 2026 and continue into 2029.
Hamilton County officials gathered on Sept. 14, 2026, to cut the ribbon on the new interchange at 146th Street and Allisonville Road, marking the official completion of one of the county’s largest recent infrastructure projects. The county said the interchange had been open to traffic for several months while crews completed final paving, landscaping and other finishing touches over the summer of 2026.
The project replaced the former signalized intersection with a grade-separated interchange that includes a roundabout on Allisonville Road beneath 146th Street. County officials described the work as intended to improve safety, traffic flow and the overall level of service along the busy 146th Street corridor.
