EspañolLLOYD EXPRESSWAY
The 'Lloyd Expressway' is a major east-west traffic artery in Evansville, Indiana. The road numbering consists of two segments. West of U.S. 41, the road is Indiana 62, and east of U.S. 41 it is Indiana 66. East of U.S. 41, Morgan Avenue becomes Indiana 62, and west of U.S. 41, Diamond Avenue becomes Indiana 66.
The road was built in various stages and officially opened on July 19, 1988. The west section of the expressway was completed in the 1950s with plans to continue it east at a later date as funding became available. In the spring of 1983, buildings in the expressway's path began coming down and construction officially continued on July 29, 1983. Motorists endured five years of detours and construction as the expressway was built through the heart of the city. Driving Division was frustrating, scary
Unlike most expressways, the road is a mix of both stoplights and single-point exit ramps.
Despite the construction delays and need for improvements, the $160 million east-west expressway allows drivers to travel from one end of the city to the other with much greater ease. Plans exist to remove remaining stoplights along the route and replace them with diamond interchanges as well as a cloverleaf interchange with U.S 41.[1]
