SWing'R Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 What time does rush hour on 71 south through Columbus end. I am blowing through there in the morning. I am thinking by 9 or 9:30 is should be calmed down?TIAI was gonna say by 10ish things should be back to normal. You got on average your 7, 8 and 9am workers, so by 10 most people are where they need to be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashweights Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 not sure when it ends, but usually not to bad until about 8am+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 not sure when it ends, but usually not to bad until about 8am+Ok, that is cool and there is an idea. Get through before it starts. I don't want to be hung up in Columbus when I am planning on being at the Dragon that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buildit Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 By South of Columbus you mean outside 270? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Yes, I am going to pick up 62 and run that to Lexington to break up the highway a bit. Yea I could go around 270 but that seems so much longer and I hate it. How is it during that time of the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buildit Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I've never seen 71 south of 270 as being bad in the Am. Most people are going North to Columbus so the south bound lanes should be okay. On the other hand 62 might be a cluster fuck. Honestly for the sake of speed you would be better going around 270 on the West side or trying to hit Columbus around 10am and just shot right through the city on 71. Just my opinion, I try to avoid the Columbus area all together since they drive like shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Whatever you do, do NOT consider 315 as an alternate to 71 because its under major construction.BTW, running around 270 to the West is easy and always pretty smooth no matter what time of day, during rush hour the right two lanes jam up a bit when you get near the 70 intersection but if you stay left you're good.
