Joe Gallagher+FollowHeads up: Major I-71 ramp closure in ClevelandIf you’re driving through Cleveland this Saturday, plan ahead—one of the busiest ramps connecting I-71 and the Jennings Freeway to I-490 east will be shut down from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Crews are clearing trees and brush, so expect some detours. About 14,000 cars use this ramp daily, but traffic should be lighter on the weekend. The suggested workaround takes you west on I-90, then through West 41st and 44th Streets before looping back to I-490. How will this impact your weekend plans?

Traci Keller+FollowTraffic nightmare on I-71: Polaris Parkway jammedAnyone driving near Polaris Parkway this afternoon knows how wild things got on I-71 South. A crash shut down all lanes for a while, and even after they reopened, traffic was crawling all the way back to Big Walnut Road. If you were caught in it, you probably spent way longer on the road than planned. Now that it’s cleared, how do you think Columbus handles these major traffic jams? Should there be better detours or alerts for drivers? Share your stories and ideas for smoother commutes! #Transportation #ColumbusTraffic #I7100Share
