I-75/Hopple construction update
 
Hamilton County (Tuesday, May 3, 2016) – Work on the Interstate 75/Hopple Street project requires the following lane closures to prepare for a traffic switch that will be in place when lanes reopen Saturday morning.
 
Tuesday, May 3 through Thursday, May 5 – Various lane closures on southbound I-75 from north of the I-74 interchange to south of the Hopple Street overpass beginning each night at 8 p.m., reopening to traffic at 6 a.m. the following day.
 
Friday, May 6 – Various lane closures on southbound I-75 from north of the I-74 interchange to north of the Western Hills Viaduct beginning at 8 p.m. Once lane closures are complete at approximately mid-morning Saturday, all lanes of southbound I-75 will be located on the west side of the interstate; no contraflow lane will exist. Northbound I-75 traffic will not be affected.
 
Arrow boards and/or signs will be in place to alert motorists of the upcoming lane closures and traffic switch. To help ensure the safety of the construction workers as well as the traveling public, motorists should remain alert, reduce their speed and watch for stopped traffic while passing through the work zone.
