Lane closure set on I-71 NB in southwest Ohio

LEBANON, Ohio (AP) — Ongoing construction work will require a lane closure on northbound Interstate 71 in Warren County northeast of Cincinnati.

The Ohio Department of Transportation says the right lane will be closed from 8 a.m. EDT Monday to 12 noon. The closure is for continuing work on the Jeremiah Morrow Bridge.

The department says arrow boards and other messages will alert motorists. Transportation officials also ask for drivers to reduce speed and watch for stopped traffic.
