      Can't wait to hear the reasoning these 4 fine individuals have to say about their decision to do such a thing.

      No clue, but it is supposed to make it into the mid 40's Friday and Saturday. I can't help but imagine that temps in the middle 40's is more ideal than single digital temps for today and tomorrow morn

    From ODOT:

    The new side wall and second deck pour are now curing. There’s more work to do, but we are getting closer to reopening southbound I-471.

    I don't believe so but we appear to be getting close.

    I hope so. I had to drive back from north of Cincinnati the other night around 7 pm and traffic was absolutely a mess. Then on Wednesday I was in Covington trying to get to Newport around 5 pm, that was also brutal. Monday I also got to partake in the mess on the Brent Spince Bridge, but that atleast had an enjoyable out come.

    Needless to say, we really need those southbound lanes reopened on 471, it will help out a lot.

    No way. I just watched from the Kentucky side of the river like the majority of folks.

    Hallelujah!

    The past week has been the worst traffic since the Brent Spence Bridge issue a few years ago.
