Interstate 480 nearing completion in 1986 progress
North Olmsted reports two of three final links of the 27mile 400 million I 480 project under construction. When finished the road will span from the Ohio Turnpike in North Ridgeville to Exit 13 in Streetsboro, easing congestion on Brookpark Road and southern Cuyahoga County routes. The remaining segments include a 2.3 mile stretch to Ridge Road and a 2.5 mile segment to Broadview Avenue, with a 0.8 mile tie-in to Tuxedo Avenue. Construction costs total about 99.7 million. The project aims to create a southern bypass and faster commutes to Cleveland and Great Northern Mall.

Union strikes vacation pay cuts in steel contract ruling
An arbitrator’s decision will force about 200,000 United Steelworkers to accept cuts in vacation pay and special unemployment benefits tied to a 10 percent wage reduction. The ruling allows benefits to be based on lower wage rates but preserves extended vacation and full time benefits for those on special retirement, while industry leaders plan discussions in Pittsburgh.
