  Lane Closure Scheduled for Jeremiah Morrow Bridge this Weekend
 
 
Warren County (Friday, Oct. 7, 2011) – The northbound span of the Interstate 71/Jeremiah Morrow Bridge will have a single lane closure Saturday, Oct. 8.
The closure will be in place on the left lane of the northbound span from 5 a.m. to noon Saturday. Work is weather permitting and traffic delays may be lengthy. 
Northbound I-71 motorists traveling to this weekend’s Waynesville Sauerkraut Festival may wish to exit I-71 at the SR 48 bypass (exit No. 28), and proceed to northbound U.S. 42 to reach Waynesville.
 Arrow boards and signs will be in place prior to the work zone to alert motorists of the upcoming closure. 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.
