Ohio State Fair road closures begin
This Wednesday, the 2015 installment of the Ohio State Fair gets underway. As vendors and exhibitors take their places ahead of opening day, road closures around the fairgrounds have begun. The following areas are now closed and will remain that way through 7am August 10th:
- East 17th Avenue between Clara Avenue and Dora Drive
- Velma Avenue between East 17th Avenue and Maynard Avenue
- Korbel Avenue between East 17th Avenue and East 20th Avenue
- Silver Drive will be limited to fair traffic only immediately south of Mapfre Stadium
Paving the Way suggests that those going to the fair approach from I-71 via East Hudson Street if coming from the north or via East 17th Avenue if coming from the south. This is definitely worth remembering if you’re planning on going to the fair to check out Reba or the butter cow.
Everyone is reminded to expect additional traffic on I-71 between East 11th Avenue and East Weber Road during the run of the fair (July 29th thru August 9th). (jj)
