The I-670/I-71 Crossroads Project (Columbus, Dayton: construction, live, airport)

[wrightflyer]

Just curious how this is going and how the traffic is holding up, especially along I-670 east and west through downtown. I know it's a huge project with plenty of closures and switch-overs.

I am mostly curious because I'll be driving to the airport from Dayton in rush hour Monday morning. Has there been a spike in accidents along this stretch? How is the drive (and fellow drivers) in general along here? I-75's construction between Cincy and Dayton had many problems with unsafe drivers and accidents over the past couple years. My biggest fear is missing my flight because I am stuck in traffic.

FYI, I could easily go I-70 E or I-71 N into Columbus. I'm pretty familiar with Columbus, having lived there a few years ago while attending OSU.

There have been increased traffic jams and accidents in the area have increased quite a bit. I would definitely leave some extra time for traffic considerations.
