Driving in Saltillo: SR 60 and the Monon South Trail
State Road 60 Through Saltillo
Washington County's comprehensive plan specifically identifies Saltillo along SR 60, together with Campbellsburg, Salem, and New Pekin.
For drivers, this means Saltillo is not simply a residential side-road community. It sits on the county's principal east-west arterial.
Drivers should watch for speed transitions, local turning traffic, and vehicles entering or leaving smaller town roads.
Saltillo-Campbellsburg Monon South Segment
The Monon South Trail section between Saltillo and Campbellsburg opened to the public on June 20, 2025 and extends approximately 3.5 miles.
Most of the segment is crushed aggregate through agricultural land, with paved sections through town.
That creates a new mix of bicycle, pedestrian, and vehicle activity in the Saltillo-Campbellsburg corridor.
Trail Development Status
The full Monon South project remains under development, but Phase 1A opened approximately 20 miles through communities including Saltillo, Campbellsburg, Salem, and New Pekin by June 2025.
Do not describe the eventual 57-plus-mile trail as fully complete.
