Part Of Westwood Drive Closed Wednesday In Strongsville

STRONGSVILLE, OH — Westwood Drive will be closed between Pearl Road and the Strongsville Public Library on Wednesday. Crews will be setting up for the city's annual Rib Burnoff.

There will be a few parking spaces on Westwood Drive, for anyone that needs to visit the police station. To get to those spaces, drivers will need to take Pearl Road to Zverina Lane. Then take Westwood past the Library to the police station, the police department said on Facebook.

The annual Rib Burnoff will be held June 21-23 at the Strongsville Commons. The event features award-winning ribs, plenty of sides and fresh-squeezed lemonade. There's also plenty for kids to do.

This is the 32nd straight year the city has hosted the rib burnoff. The event features more than just great food — there are inflatables for kids to play on and free live music each day at 6:30 p.m.

The rib burnoff will run from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Thursday, 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and noon to 11 p.m. on Saturday. Admission is $3 with proceeds going to different local projects, the city said on its website.

The Commons is at the corner of Pearl and Royalton roads.
