Major Work on I-275 Requires Lane Restrictions
between Four Mile Road and the Ohio River
Hamilton County
(Friday, May 11, 2018) - Pavement resurfacing
and bridge work on east and west Interstate 275 from approximately Four Mile
Road to the Kentucky side of the Ohio River will require various lane
closures.
Preliminary work on the
project will begin May 14 and includes various shoulder closures on I-275
between Four Mile Road and Kellogg Avenue daily from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. for
constructing temporary lighting and pavement. The project is expected to be
completed by the end of August 2020.
The $31 million
construction project includes 1.6 miles of resurfacing and rehabilitation of
four I-275 twin bridges at Four Mile Rd.; Sutton Rd.; Kellogg Ave.;
and Combs-Hehl.
The project will
utilize a contraflow configuration that begins near Sutton Rd. and ends on
the Kentucky side of the Combs-Hehl Bridge. The initial contraflow alignment
will begin in mid-June through mid- to late November 2018. Then in November
2018 the next phase of the contraflow configuration will be implemented until
late spring/early summer 2019. The contraflow directional phasing is still
being determined and will be identified within the next two weeks.
Arrow boards and/or
signs will be in place to alert motorists of the upcoming work zone and
restrictions. All work is contingent upon the weather.
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.
