ODOT has informed the City of Euclid that the contractor currently working on the E. 185th project plans to remove all detour signage, barrels and cones from E. 185th Street 12/2. The plan is to reopen the street to two-way traffic the same afternoon.

Villaview Rd is also open to 2-way traffic, but some barrels will remain while they wait for a crew to complete road painting, (hopefully next week.) This work is especially dependent on dry, warmer weather.

On E. 185th Street, north of Pawnee Rd, concrete work and brick paver installation will continue on the east side of the street for a few more week. The contractors will utilize the east side parking lane, as needed, for this work, and there may be occasional flaggers to manage traffic around active work areas.

At the corner of E. 185th and Lakeshore Blvd the contractors are working on installing drainage and water quality structures. They hope to install the sidewalk and curb this year, however, this is weather dependent. Due to temperature and weather restrictions on asphalt installation, the cul-de-sac pavement at Locherie is scheduled to be completed next year. Most of this work will not hinder E. 185th Street traffic flow. There may be flaggers in this area at times to manage traffic during curb installation, etc.

We appreciate the responsiveness of ODOT and the contractors to re-open E. 185th Street, and use flaggers for isolated areas of work rather than keeping the detour in place for a longer period of time.

E. 185th Street is now fully open for business!

Stay tuned for more details in coming months regarding Phase II construction, from Villaview to Windward, starting Spring 2023.
