This is someone’s mom, dad, sister, friend… working just steps away from traffic. You could be the difference between them making it home safely or not. This #MoveOverMonday, remember slow down and move over. Drive like you work here.

When the Detroit Avenue bridge over I-75, Toledo, was struck in March, resulting in a long-term closure of I-75, local and statewide ODOT forces quickly coordinated and mobilized to take advantage of the closure, eliminating the need for future traffic impacts. #WorkerWednesday

THE LOOP: Progress on the Far East Freeway, reimagined rest areas continue to open, honoring our volunteer heroes, and slowing down for back-to-school safety. transportation.ohio.gov/about-us/resou…

For many of our workers here at ODOT, the roadside is their office. When you see flashing lights or workers on the road, help keep everyone safe by moving over or slowing down. It's not just a courtesy, it's the law. #MoveOverMonday

SUMMIT COUNTY: I-77 northbound just north of Ghent Rd. is closed due to a crash. Motorists should avoid the area.

UPDATE: I-77 northbound is NOW OPEN.
