Lots of pieces being set today as the freeway below is closed until tomorrow morning

Wish they would cap 70/71 from Front St to Grant.

I wish I was little bit taller. I wish I was a baller. I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her.

The massive Downtown Ramp Up project continues to move along on the southern edge of Downtown.

 

Snatched a few of the new bridges/overpasses as I passed under a few hours ago

Had no idea this project was planned. This did seem to help on 670 so that isn’t awful.

Yeah that's been on the books for a few years now. Even better this will be in both directions.

Few looks at the new bridge decks being built on the southern edge of Downtown as part of Downtown Ramp Up.

These will eventually hold the Front Street Bridge and the crossover to Fulton St for Inbound Downtown ramps

This part of the project is shown on the map below in light purple (Phase 4R)- specifically where the new ramp crosses over the red just before Front St

Hard for me to like this since it just seems so crazily overbuilt. With as many cars end up in buildings, all I can picture is cars flying off the bridge and into the Scioto.

As much as I loathe the Interstate cutting through downtown and having no other public transportation besides bus service, the interchange being shifted over to Fulton St from the West Side and Mound St (already long completed) from the East Side will be a huge improvement. No more fast paced entrances and exits on 3rd and 4th streets, and once those bridges are capped with buildings on 3rd it will make the connection seamless from downtown to GV/Brewery District.

I do like the bridges connecting into downtown better and removing several ramps. The flyover ramp is a bit obnoxious but is a necessity with the new on and off ramps.

Whenever the "fix" is done, we need to immediately start on rail transit, it will be used and will be a huge success (at least in my dreams).

The Downtown Ramp Up project continues to make the southern edge of downtown virtually unrecognizable...

Can't wait to see the transformation of the area from High to Third- which will ramp up after the Front St bridge opens back up
