Motorists navigate a narrowed passage as a $6 million, two-year construction project on the stretch of East Wooster Street between I-75 and downtown Bowling Green gets under way. The city purchased 123 parcels from 76 owners at a cost of about $700,000 to make way for the road widening. Drivers should expect delays on Wooster and intersecting streets and should consider using State Rt. 25 and either U.S. 6 or State Rt. 582 to get to or from I-75.
