The Ohio Department of Transportation has announced a set of Clinton County road projects for November, including lane restrictions, detours and bridge construction. According to ODOT, schedules depend on weather, and every listed project is expected to be completed during the month. The department directed drivers to OHGO.com for real-time traffic and statewide road conditions.
On Interstate 71, resurfacing between the State Route 73 and U.S. Route 68 interchanges will restrict traffic at night. ODOT said the work runs from the Smith Road overpass to the Gurneyville Road overpass and will keep at least one lane open in each direction from about 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. daily.
State Route 134 will remain closed through mid-November for a bridge replacement over the East Fork Little Miami River north of State Route 124 near the Highland County line. The detour uses U.S. Route 50, U.S. Route 68 and State Route 28. In Wilmington, Davids Drive is closed through roughly Nov. 18 for pavement reconstruction between Rombach Avenue, also U.S. Route 22, and Lynne Lane; traffic is directed to Progress Way, Airborne Road, State Route 134 and Davids Drive.
ODOT also reported bridge rehabilitation on State Route 28 between State Route 73 and Phillips Road in New Vienna, with daytime flaggers as needed. State Route 133 is open after bridge work over Whitakers Run in Blanchester, though daytime flaggers remain for finishing work. State Route 350 has one lane maintained by flaggers during daytime resurfacing between First Street in Clarksville and State Route 730. U.S. Route 22 resurfacing between the Warren County line and the Wilmington corporation limit will keep at least one lane open with flaggers and traffic control devices.
