Lane reduction

Lane reduction

HANOVERTON

U.S. Route 30 east of the village in Hanover Township has been reduced to one lane until Aug. 31 because of a culvert failure from excessive rains this spring.

The Ohio Department of Transportation says two-way traffic is being maintained in the one lane with temporary traffic signals. DOT Construction Corp. of Canfield will replace the culvert and perform guardrail and pavement repairs for $250,000. The project is funded by federal emergency funds made available due to the major rainfall in April, according to ODOT.
