I-480 Restrictions Start This Week In Northeast Ohio

GARFIELD HEIGHTS, OH — Construction on I-480 will cause lane restrictions on Thursday and Friday and most of next week. Crews will be working on the Valley View Bridge, prompting the traffic pattern changes.

On Thursday night, from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Friday, there will be lane closures on I-480 east between I-77 and Transportation Boulevard. The right lane of West Canal Road south will be closed intermittently between Granger Road and the I-480 Valley View Bridge because of overhead construction.

Between Monday, Feb. 24, and Friday, Feb. 28, there will be nightly lane closures in the same locations.

During the construction, the Transportation Boulevard exit on I-480 will remain open.

Traffic on West Canal Road will be maintained using portable traffic lights. Those lights will remain in place through fall 2020.
