Euclid Heights Boulevard Construction Will Last Through 2018

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, OH — Cleveland Heights residents should get used to the sight of Dominion East Ohio gas line crews. Workers will be replacing the gas line on Euclid Heights Boulevard until the end of the year, the city said.

The gas line replacement will take place between Coventry and Lee roads during weekdays. Crews will work from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

What impact will this have on drivers? A lot, potentially.

Cleveland Heights Police said motorists should expect lane closures, delays, and changes in traffic patterns. The department is asking drivers to find an alternate route, if possible. Yikes.

"Please check your speed when driving through a work zone, and be cautious of workers in and around the roadway," the police department said on social media.

Work started on Tuesday and will continue through at least the end of 2018 on the Euclid Heights Boulevard gas line.
