A Good News Update for Beechmont & Five Mile Drivers

Good news for Anderson drivers! Much of the construction on the Continuous Flow Intersection, which has impacted traffic flow since early summer, will be wrapped up by December.

The intersection project at Beechmont Avenue and Five Mile Road will be mostly complete by Thanksgiving. However, finishing work to construct a right turn lane from Beechmont to Five Mile at the IHOP corner continues a few weeks longer.

The Ohio Department of Transportation and the Hamilton County Engineer’s Office have indicated the new traffic pattern on the busy Continuous Flow Intersection probably won’t go live until early spring when the weather breaks. The existing signal system will remain in place for the next couple of months.

So, here’s the bottom line. After paving work that is expected to occur this week, drivers will be relieved that construction-related holiday traffic snarls will likely be kept to a minimum until spring. A brief construction cycle will provide final paving and pavement markings in the spring.
