Starting Monday, June 15, Columbus commutes for many became a little more chaotic.
The Ohio Department of Transportation has closed down the following entrance ramps on 315 northbound for construction:
Lane Avenue entrance ramp to SR 315 north
I-670 east to SR 315 north
Goodale Boulevard to SR 315 north
Olentangy River Road to SR 315 north.
These entrance ramps will remain closed until ODOT completes the project in October of this year. (LOLZ – we’ll see about that date.) Drivers can still access SR 315 north by using the I-670 west ramp or Ackerman Road entrance ramp. (via ODOT)
I had to fight with this re-route for the first time yesterday, and it sucked. Delayed me by 30 full minutes. Avoid it if you can. WTF do you need in Powell, anyway? HUH?!
AND DON’T FORGET: once you manage to get ON 315, the speed limit most of the way is only 45MPH during this construction and there are cops EVERYWHERE, so watch your speedometer closely! Cruise control is your best friend.
