Just past this curve, the CSX railroad track veers to the northeast while U.S. 50 continues toward the east. It is at this point where the new partial bypass for U.S. 50 will be verging off of the current U.S. 50. The partial bypass will consist of a two lane road that will connect with SR 7 and SR 3 to the north, connecting the commercial centers of the county with U.S. 50 and points west including Seymour and Interstate 65. The first stage of the project is expected to be finished in 2013. Plans to complete the rest of the bypass have not been confirmed, so U.S. 50 will continue to go town for the time being.
