I didn't know the city gave so much money to SORTA. How much do the burbs pay?

I'm not sure if many noticed but you can see the Carew right at the I-75-I-71 at I-275 interchange. Heading north of course..;)

You knowI have driven through there around union last week. It's amazing how much has changed. These are the people though that going to be sitting in traffic 30 mins just to get to downtown. What should be a 15 min trip will be 45 mins. I-75/I-71 needs to be 5 lanes each way or face terrible commutes just to get to downtown Cincinnati, needless to say Blue Ash or Union center.

^First quarter right?

It might be a while since they will have to wire underground. Power internet uses the powerline into your home, but on the outside they need a whole new wire to connect all of the houses like cable.

Well they send out a mailing to all the area's that's covered. I got mine. It came 2 weeks after the guy came to the house. It's hard to find out on the site, since you have to put that code they give you in the mailing.

Yeah same here, some young guy came around our area(Silverton) selling the service. I have not gotten it yet, because of my brother being in the hospital. I think i'll get it around Christmas.

If and when that New highway ever happens. I hope I-71 is widen by then, because It will surely be much much more congested.

I heard Cincy just got an Arena Football team.

I did pick them to win this week only because jamal was not playing. But next week..NE. I hope Cincy wins though.

True ..What else can be put into the river while building a bridge. Let see there is raw sewage, maybe some left over radioactivity from 3 mile island.

WOW I always thought that was an abandoned apartment building, but who would want to buy a condo in that area?

Why bash Columbus? They have had no Major sports teams. It was ripe for one.

I know some people have had hotel rooms reserved,events planned around the team, etc. How has this lockout affected the city?

^Victory pky has to be the most under used 6 lane street in Cincinnati. I guess Xavior would get the most benefit from an interchange there. I guess the city said it was not worth it for a private college.

completely built out? No county in ohio is completely built out so why even bother?

Build the thing already. I can't think of anyplace where a bridge has been built that has destroyed habitat on a river in the usa. This is not a third world country. Sometimes these people piss me off.

Someone just got killed at that intersection yesturday.

First thing is first. Pittsburgh on sunday will be the telling point.

Orange Barrels And Construction To Shift On I-75 Reported by: Deb Silverman Web produced by: Neil Relyea Photographed by: 9News 11/16/04 6:26:41 PM You might have noticed the orange barrels on I-75 north of the city are on the way out. Before you breathe a sigh of relief -- the construction work just north of I-275 is still far from over. The work around the area will be finished at the end of the week. Give it another year and those orange barrels will be back on '75.

I suggest taking out the whole east side wall and just route both northbound and southbound traffic through there. Demolish the 1 mile bridge(northbound). Tear out the abandoned warehouses that caught fire and go from there.;) Not many homes will be affect by my plan..;)
