According to the Ohio Department of Transportation Interstate 75, State Route 103 will be affected at times for bridge deck replacements on Napoleon Road over Interstate 75, Beaverdam, and State Route 103 (Bentley Road) over Interstate 75, Bluffton. The following are upcoming impacts related to the project:
Bentley Road (state Route 103)
• Two bridges on Bentley Road (one over Interstate 75 and one over the railroad north of Interstate 75) will close May 30 for approximately four months.
• Both the southbound entrance and exit ramps at Bentley Road will be closed, also beginning May 30 for four months.
• The northbound ramps at the interchange will remain open; however, no left turn onto Bentley Road from northbound Interstate 75 will be permitted.
Interstate 75
· Interstate 75 both northbound and southbound will be periodically reduced to one lane at times beneath both the Napoleon Road and Bentley Road bridge structures during certain operations related to construction.
· Lane closures will occur sporadically and are expected to occur mostly during daytime hours but some nighttime closures may occur.
Napoleon Road
• Napoleon Road bridge over I-75 will close on May 22 for approximately four months.
• The ramps at the interchange will remain open.
• Motorists traveling northbound on Interstate 75 wishing to access state Route 696 are advised to do so via exit 135 (State Route 696/U.S. 30) at Beaverdam. No access to State Route 696 from Interstate 75 northbound at the Napoleon Road exit will be available.
State Route 115 between U.S. 30 and state Route 65, north of Lima, is now open following culvert replacements.
