Of Ohio 48 intersections in Centerville, only the Alex-Bell Road and Interstate 675 intersections have a higher daily average traffic volume, ODOT records show.
The lane closure area will move south with the work, according to the city. Centerville officials said project contractor - Adleta Construction of Cincinnati - will work to move away from the intersection as quickly as possible.
