U.S. Route 23 North Reduced To One Lane
Chillicothe - U.S. Route 23 North in Ross County has been reduced to one lane due to a damaged bridge deck.
The route is reduced to one lane in the northbound direction at the 15.32-mile marker, just south of the state Route 159/Kingston exit, where the bridge deck over Hopetown Road has been damaged.
Crews will be working to repair the route this week; however, the lane restriction will be in effect until all repairs have been made.
The southbound lanes of the route are not affected by this roadwork, and northbound motorists are reminded to exercise additional caution in the project area.
