Slusher says you’ll still see plenty of construction at the I-75 interchange with U.S. 68. However, ODOT expects the fly-over ramp from I-75 southbound to U.S. 68 to open by the end of the year.

Slusher adds the contractor is a little behind where they want to be in the project. Several days below 20 degrees over the winter slowed construction plans.

Elsewhere in the county, you can expect to see the first phase of the Main Street reconstruction project in Arlington begin.

Slusher spoke at the Findlay Hancock County Chamber of Commerce’s Fresh-Brewed Business meeting Tuesday.
