Night work on I-75 in Findlay to begin Sunday

Here's what you need to know concerning lane closings

The following impacts to traffic related to the reconstruction and widening of Interstate 75 through Findlay and Hancock County are scheduled to occur in the coming weeks:
 
Interstate 75 Findlay
Interstate 75 both northbound and southbound from the area of the Blanchard River (mile marker 159) near Findlay High School to county Road 99 (mile marker 161) will be restricted to one lane at times through the work zone during nighttime hours only beginning Sunday, March 26.
 
• The restrictions are necessary to perform shoulder work and for placement of temporary pavement in preparation for future shifts in traffic patterns.
• Work will occur generally from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. each night.
• Two lanes in each direction will be maintained on I-75 during daytime hours.
 
I-75 north of Findlay
 I-75 between county Road 99 (mile marker 161) and Oil Center Road (mile marker 170) is currently reduced to two lanes in each direction.
• Work is occurring nightly, from approximately 7 p.m. to 6 a.m.
• The restriction allows for the placement of temporary pavement marking in preparation for a traffic pattern change.
• Paving of the final driving surface is expected to begin the week of April 3 and conclude by the end of April. All work is weather dependent.
 
U.S. 68/State Route 15 Interchange with I-75
 All ramps at the interchange all currently open.
• The exit ramp from I-75 northbound to U.S. 68/state Route 15 (exit 156) is expected to close this spring, likely in April, for approximately three years. At that time, traffic will be detoured north to the state Route 12 interchange to I-75 southbound back to U.S. 68/state Route 15.
