More Construction near Hamvention, not to worry though

Yesterday while driving home I found a very disturbing
sight right where all of you using the shuttle busses
will be going through, another construction project
getting ready to start!  After making some phone
calls, a couple of emails, and a personal visit to the
Ohio Department of Transportation office here in town
I have got good news.  While the Ohio DOT is starting
a project on May 6th, they are doing a lot of prep
work before going full-bore.  In this time they will
only be working 4 days a week and have part-time lane
restrictions.  The better news is that if they have to
work on May 16th (Opening Day) they will only be
taking the outside northbound lane durring normal
working hours.  What does this mean for Hamvention, IF
they work on Friday they will only have one lane
closed and it will only effect the traffic leaving and
it is only .6 mile long.  Keep with the detours posted
before, and as always listen to Talk-In on 146.940 for
late breaking detals.
