Indiana State Police are investigating a serious crash involving two semis and an SUV on the Indiana Toll Road in Elkhart County. The driver of the Volvo semi was airlifted to the hospital with minor injuries, while the driver of the SUV was taken to the hospital with serious but not life-threatening injuries. The driver of the Freightliner was not injured. Westbound traffic is being diverted off at Exit 96 while crews clean up the wreckage.
Highway 37, a congested 21-mile commuter route in the Bay Area, will become a toll road in 2027 to help pay for a $430 million project to widen the flood-prone highway. Tolls will be collected electronically in both directions at half the rate of the region's state-owned bridges. The project will expand the traffic-choked segment to four lanes, reducing commute times from 100 to 26 minutes during eastbound evening commutes and 60 to 30 minutes on westbound morning commutes. Lower-income drivers will receive discounts, and bus transit will be established on the corridor.
