Bridge work to cause shifts in I-280 traffic

3/20/2003

A traffic pattern shift at the Maumee River Crossing work zone will require lane closings on I-280 in East Toledo this weekend, the Ohio Department of Transportation announced.

Beginning at 7 p.m. tomorrow, northbound traffic between Navarre (State Rt. 2) and Starr avenues will be restricted to one lane through this area. Southbound traffic will be restricted to one lane through the same zone beginning sometime Saturday evening.

Two lanes of traffic are to be restored by 6 a.m. Monday in both directions. At that time, all traffic will operate in what is normally the northbound half of the roadway, while the southbound lanes are reconstructed.

The work may be postponed if it rains.
