A roundabout project at Cleveland and Beech Roads in Granger is running behind schedule.

County leaders say unexpected issues faced by NIPSCO have delayed the planned closure of the intersection by a week, pushing it to June 9.

NIPSCO had originally aimed to finish its portion by the end of May.

Because of the delay, contractor Rieth-Riley will have to wait to begin work. The $3.5 million project is now expected to wrap up by mid-October.
