Whenever the topic of local road work comes up, the ongoing construction at 146th Street and Allisonville Road is front and center. It has reconfigured traffic temporarily and motorists find lane closures on a regular basis.
The Hamilton County Highway Department urges drivers to observe the 35 miles-per-hour speed limit in the construction zone. Officials say the next change in the traffic pattern will come in December.
Construction vehicles will continue coming and going from the area, so please be alert when driving in the zone.
If there is any good news, the latest projection from Hamilton County says construction should all be completed by August 1, 2025. Once finished, there will be an overpass on 146th Street over Allisonville Road and there will be a roundabout controlling traffic on ground level at Allisonville.
The completion percentages for the categories of construction are listed below.
