District 3 of the Ohio Department of Transportation has issued its weekly road construction advisory. Fortunately, while three works remain on schedule, two of them have planed completion dates at or before the end November.

Those projects underway and which will involve work over this week (November 20-26):

Interstate 71

I-71 southbound, just south of US 30, has daytime single lane closures possible as crews start foundation work on a noise wall project. Motorists are advised to watch for construction vehicles entering the US 30 westbound entrance ramp to I-71. The project is expected to be complete April 2017.

State Routes 96 & 603

SR 96, from SR 13 to the Ashland County Line, and SR 603, from SR 96 to SR 61, will have intermittent daytime lane closures possible as crews complete finalization work for the resurfacing project. Traffic will be maintained with flaggers as needed. The project is expected to be complete November 2016.

State Route 97

SR 97, at its interchange with Interstate 71, has narrowed lanes of traffic for a minor widening project. During this phase of the project, one lane of traffic will be maintained in each direction and restricted to 10 feet lane widths. The project is expected to be complete by the end of November 2016.
