Ramping Up the Broad Street Ramp....At Last! When the late, great Etta James sang her signature "At Last", it evoked love's deepestyearning.
Not quite the same reaction when a closed highway entrance ramp reopens. But you'dnever know it from the response we've had since the Broad Street entrance ramp to I-71north was shut down. It is one of the ramps we get asked about most often. "When will itre-open?".... "How much longer is it going to be closed?" In about one month, weather permitting the Broad St. ramp will re-open, but where it takesyou will be different. Because of the location of the new tunnel, only I-71 north will beaccessible from the re-opened ramp. To access I-670 east, you'll have to enter I-71 northfrom the new Spring St. ramp, also set to open in November.

The Broad Street ramp will still only be accessible by a right-hand turn if you are headingwest on Broad Street. Opening dates have not yet been confirmed. Watch Facebook and Twitter for details. Spring Street Bridge Travel Change Ahead
Kokosing crews are making the final preparations before switching motor vehicle andpedestrian traffic on the new Spring Street Bridge from the south to the north side of thebridge. The switch takes place at the end of October. The switch is necessary so crewscan complete work on the other half of the bridge. This travel pattern is expected to lastuntil next spring.
