Road Closings Protest Interstate 71 Access in Warren County
Five residents protested the closure of three Warren County secondary roads near Interstate 71 during a county commission public hearing. State engineers argued the $200,000 per overpass cost warrants dead-ending Jack Nixon Camp and Sherod roads, as federal aid may not cover continued openings. Protesters urged interchanges and noted Warren County’s rapid growth. The commission cited 136 percent population rise in 10 years and urged action to ease future traffic, building toward an interchange at Mason and Fields Ertle Roads.
