Driving in Dyer: U.S. 30, Calumet Avenue, and Sheffield Avenue
Dyer's Major Traffic Routes
The Town's comprehensive transportation planning identifies four particularly important roads:
U.S. 30/Lincoln Highway
Calumet Avenue
Sheffield Avenue/Hart Street
213th Street (Town of Dyer)
These corridors give Dyer a substantially more suburban and commuter-oriented driving environment than southern Lake County towns.
U.S. 30 and Calumet Avenue
Dyer officials reported in March 2026 that the U.S. 30 and Calumet Avenue signalization project was moving forward. (Town of Dyer)
Drivers should follow current signals and construction controls because intersection projects can change lane use, turning movements, and access patterns.
2026 Street Resurfacing
Dyer also has a 2026 Community Crossings street-resurfacing project involving road paving and associated work. (Indiana Bids)
Drivers should use current Town notices for the specific streets affected as construction moves through different locations.
Sheffield Avenue and Commuter Traffic
Sheffield Avenue is one of Dyer's primary thoroughfares and has long been a focus of the Town's transportation planning. Dyer's planning documents also connect future development around the Main Street rail station with improvements to Sheffield Avenue and Calumet Avenue. (Town of Dyer)
Snow-Route Priorities
Dyer Public Works specifically lists Calumet Avenue, Sheffield Avenue, Hart Street, and 213th Street among the main thoroughfares cleared first during snow and ice events. (Town of Dyer)
That reinforces their importance to the local road network.
