ODOT I-75 project meetings this week

DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - The Ohio Department of Transportation will hold several meetings over the next couple of weeks about I-75 construction plans through downtown Dayton.

Residents and business owners will have a chance to ask questions about the final phase of the project.

Attendees will see how the construction will affect downtown's central business district, including what routes will remain open during the final phase.

The meeting schedule is as follows:

- Tuesday, September 18th @ Noon: KeyBank Tower, 10 West 2nd St., Suite 611
