Project Description

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) proposes to implement a SmartLane in each direction on I-71 between I-670 (just north of 5th Avenue) and I-270 (just north of SR 161). These improvements will improve safety and ease congestion. The I-71 SmartLane project will also resurface travel lanes and improve numerous bridges along the corridor.


What is a SmartLane?

A SmartLane is a traffic management solution that uses the existing shoulder as an additional lane of travel during periods of heavy congestion. When it’s not needed, the SmartLane closes for use by law enforcement, emergency responders and maintenance crews.
