ROAD CLOSURES
Highland Rd. Closure extended until 11 p.m.
State Route 8 in Macedonia
(Wednesday, April 14)
A SHORT SECTION OF Highland Rd between SR 8 and Olde Eight under the newly constructed SR 8/I-271 ramps will be closed for sewer installation and pavement repair. This closure will occur on Tuesday, April 14 from 9 am until 11 pm. The detour will be Olde Eight to SR 82 to SR 8.
As a reminder, SR-8 under I-271 will have possible lane restrictions in either of both directions weekdays from 9am until 3 pm. This work is part of a $109.7 million project for the reconstruction of SR 8 from just south of Twinsburg Road to just north of I-271. Five new bridges will be constructed. The existing ramps will be improved. New ramps will be built to access I-271 from SR 8 northbound and SR 8 southbound from I-271 southbound. The entire project is scheduled to be complete by mid-summer 2010.
