Crews from the Ohio Department of Transportation District 9 Highland County Maintenance Facility will undertake a culvert replacement project on SR 28 this month, requiring a weeklong closure of the route.

On Monday, June 13, crews will close SR 28 between Miami Trace Road and Collier Road, approximately two miles west of Greenfield, to replace a deteriorated culvert. The closure will go into effect at approximately 8 a.m. on June 13 and continue until 4 p.m. Friday, June 17, or until all work is completed. Completion of the project, however, will be contingent upon the weather.

While SR 28 is closed, motorists will be detoured via SR 138 at Greenfield and SR 771 at Leesburg.

For additional information on lane and road closures caused by construction, accidents, flooding or other related traffic events throughout the state, visit on ODOT on the web at www.Ohgo.com.
