Inbound Columbia Parkway down to one lane for Friday rush hour

 

CINCINNATI (FOX19) - The westbound curb lanes of Columbia Parkway between Martin Drive and the Third St./Fort Washington Way exit ramp are closed and will remain closed for morning rush hour on Friday. 

As crews were cleaning up and ready to open Columbia Parkway after removing an unstable portion of the hillside that began moving earlier this week, the remaining hillside also began moving.  Engineers decided for the safety of the traveling public to put the lane closure back in place until the hillside can be stabilized again.  Crews will mobilize early Friday and begin work on removing the remaining unstable dirt.

Columbia Parkway is reduced down to one lane, between Martin Street and the Third Street exit.  All exit and entrance ramps will remain open at all times.  Drivers are encouraged to reduce their speed and use caution when approaching the closure area.
