Cincinnati Streetcar / The Connector News
Weird... it looks blue and black to me. Is this a joke? Because its the same color as that yellow container under the plastic in that same picture. The only blue I see is from the railing in the background and something blue coming from the garbage can

Cincinnati: Brent Spence Bridge
^ That is odd since they just closed a lane in each direction for the whole summer for one of the bridges in Indiana on I-275.

Why is he trying to ruin an asset? What a disservice to the citizens of the city. I wish some of the big companies in the city would say something.

Cincinnati: Interstate 75
North and southbound students on I-75 already take the Hopple Exit. What's the difference????? Oh btw this is what Cincinnati state will contribute. "Cincinnati State will not contribute to the cost of the bridge, but Owens plans several economic development projects after the bridge is completed, including housing with a day care where married students could live while attending the college and have their non school-age children taken care of and educated."

Cincinnati: I-71 Improvements / Uptown Access Project (MLK Interchange)
Hamilton County (Friday, April 10, 2015) – As part of the work to create a new, full movement interchange at Interstate 71 and Martin Luther King Dr., demolition of the remaining half of the Conrail bridge is scheduled for the weekend of April 17-20. Work to dismantle the Conrail bridge located just north of the Martin Luther King Drive overpass will require a full closure of northbound I-71 between the Reading Road/Gilbert Avenue and Dana Avenue exits. This closure will be in place from 10 p.m. Friday, April 17 through 6 a.m. Monday, April 20. Traffic will be detoured to northbound I-75 to eastbound SR 562 to I-71. During demolition, the left lane of southbound I-71 between the Dana and Taft exits will be closed. Once the bridge is dismantled and removed from site, various lane closures will be in place on southbound I-71. During this weekend closure, the following exits to northbound I-71 will be closed: I-471, Second Street, Fifth Street, Gilbert/Reading and McMillan. Detours will be signed. Also, the right two lanes of northbound I-71 through the Lytle Tunnel will be closed; the left lane will remain open with traffic diverted to northbound U.S. 42 (Reading Road) to the Norwood Lateral/SR 562 to I-71. Motorists attending events in downtown Cincinnati the weekend of April 17 - 20 are advised to plan accordingly. Arrow boards and/or signs will be in place to alert motorists of the upcoming road and lane closures. To help ensure the safety of the construction workers as well as the traveling public, motorists should remain alert, reduce their speed and watch for stopped traffic while passing through the work zone. http://www.dot.state.oh.us/districts/D08/Newsreleases/Pages/Full-closure-of-northbound-I-71-April-17-20.aspx

^^ That would be criminal to stop public transit on purpose. Hopefully Cranley has learned from Christie.

Is Gregg the setup man for the Reds? If so it may be a long season. Good win though.

Obviously there is not enough funding for all those projects. But Cranley can't say he didn't know the cost of the Union Terminal connection.
