S.R. 315 Project

ODOT’s rehabilitation of S.R. 315 between I-670 and North Broadway began major work the week of June 15. All traffic has been moved to the existing southbound lanes, weather permitting. Two lanes of traffic are maintained in each direction. The following ramps are closed:

Southbound S.R. 315 entrance ramps
• Olentangy River Road to southbound S.R. 315
• North Broadway to southbound S.R. 315
• Ackerman Road to southbound S.R. 315
• Lane Avenue to southbound S.R. 315
• 12th Avenue to southbound S.R. 315
To access S.R. 315 south, drivers can use the Goodale Boulevard entrance ramp.

Entrance ramps to northbound S.R. 315
• I-670 east to S.R. 315 north
• Goodale Boulevard to S.R. 315 north
• Olentangy River Road to S.R. 315 north
• Lane Avenue to S.R. 315 north
Drivers can access S.R. 315 north by using the I-670 west ramp or Ackerman Road entrance ramp.

Exit ramps on northbound S.R. 315
• Northbound S.R. 315 to Medical Center Drive
• Northbound S.R. 315 to Ackerman Road

The ramps from southbound and northbound S.R. 315 to Lane Avenue remain open.

As a reminder, Columbus and other law enforcement officers are strictly enforcing the 45 mile-per-hour speed limit during this project. There will be no tolerance for speeding or careless driving in this work zone.

Please remember the basics of work-zone safety: watch your speed, watch for signs, expect the unexpected, focus carefully on driving safely and plan ahead. Motorists are encouraged to use I-71, Olentangy River Road and Kenny Road as alternates
