Ft. Washington Way closed tonight
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Fort Washington Way will be shut down in both directions from 9 tonight to about 5 a.m. Thursday as crews set structural beams for a temporary span that will connect the Roebling Suspension Bridge with downtown Cincinnati.
Northbound Interstate 71 motorists may take the Fifth Street exit just north of the Brent Spence Bridge, cross downtown and take I-71 on the eastern edge of downtown; or continue north on I-75 and connect to I-71 on the Norwood Lateral (Ohio 562); Ronald Reagan Highway (Ohio 126); or Interstate 275.
Southbound I-71 motorists may take the same highways to southbound I-75 and connect back with I-71 at the Brent Spence Bridge; or exit downtown at Gilbert Avenue to Eighth Street, shifting one block north to Ninth Street westbound through downtown to the southbound I-75 entrance ramp, to connect back with I-71 at the Brent Spence Bridge.
Southbound I-75 motorists trying to reach Interstate 471, Columbia Parkway, or northbound I-71 will be detoured to Seventh Street, where they can drop down to Fifth Street and take their respective on-ramps on the eastern edge of downtown.
The eastbound Fort Washington Way exit ramp onto Pete Rose Way will remain open during the closure and can be another option for I-71 northbound travelers, who can take Pete Rose Way east to Broadway, then travel north to Fifth Street and east to the I-71 entrance ramp.
