90G60 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Glad they are doing something about this side of 270/23. Very sad to see that they will be taking away the clover from 270w to 315s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lag wagon Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 So, there will still only be 1 lane in each direction to enter 270 from 23? Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Took 4 years for the 161-NEXT project to complete and was a BITCH to get around. Good luck local residents. Who you fooling, that project was over 10 years, phase one was widening 161 in the late 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTaylor751647545500 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I moved to the area in '01, the NEXT project started shortly after and took 4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceGhost Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 670/71 interchange is a 10+ year project, with phase 1 to be completed next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm telling you next was the last phase in rebuilding 161, I graduated from Westerville North in 93, I have lived in Westerville most of my life.

TTQ B4U Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I was just talking to a coworker about this. Happy and pissed at the same time. Used to drive all the way around from Dublin to Obetz then they fucked up the west side. Now I'm at the Easton office and enjoy my 20 minute runs from Dublin to there but now it's likely going to be hell and will fucking dirty the ride up both ways for months.

I'm completely agreeing with you. The majority of the project (fly-over ramps, tunnel, Sunbury RD exit revamp) took place in the last phase of the project which was all a bitch.

Good, I have dealt with 161 for years, now I get 670/71 interchange, if it sucks for me, it should suck for everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Doesn't seem to address the cross traffic coming from N315 to 270E/23N, that's where the log jam really is, you'd think they would find a way to route the "Thru" traffic not exiting onto 23 from 315 by going under or over somehow. Tunnels are good, I-10 has a 1/2 mile stretch right near downtown Phoenix here that I can never resist blasting through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunnels are good, I-10 has a 1/2 mile stretch right near downtown Phoenix here that I can never resist blasting through. Exactly. All they are doing here is giving us a Sawmill style intersection and eliminating the lights at Campus View/Flint with the 'tunnel'...which will ease congestion on 23 out of Worthington, but there is still the issue of the 315 merge. They need to do a 'fly-over' or something and drop through traffic off on the other side of 270. Also I'm not seeing how one would go from Campus View/Flint and get on 270...it looks as if the drawing only has a northbound connection?

mmrmnhrm Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Also I'm not seeing how one would go from Campus View/Flint and get on 270...it looks as if the drawing only has a northbound connection? CV/F southbound onto 270 isn't changing. You've still got the regular ramp westbound, and the cloverleaf east. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
