The section of Rogers Street being closed cuts through the Prospect Hill neighborhood.

Another section of Rogers Street will be closed for roadwork this month.

Rogers between 2nd and 3rd streets will be closed June 15-26 for resurfacing & potential repair work on sidewalks and traffic signals.

This closure is part of a different project than the Rogers Street closure near Switchyard Park. That section reopened June 10 after just over 2 weeks for the installation of a raised pedestrian crossing.

In a press release, the City of Bloomington said that because Rogers Street will serve as a detour during the planned closure of South College Avenue for convention center work, “completing this work first will support more reliable traffic flow through the area.”

Residents should expect detours and potential delays. Drivers are encouraged to slow down, follow posted signage, and use caution when traveling near construction zones.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
