CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Starting Aug. 8, the Shoreway will be closed in both directions at Lake Avenue while the Shoreway bridge is replaced. Traffic will be rerouted onto the Lake Avenue Westbound exit ramp, which will be converted into a two-way street, for 25 days.

The Lake Avenue entrance ramp to the Eastbound Shoreway will be closed will close at about 5 p.m. Aug. 4 through late November while the bridge is repaired. Traffic will be detoured onto West Boulevard.

During the construction, which is part of ODOT's Lakefront West project, delays are expected, and ODOT recommends drivers use alternate routes or take RTA.

The Lakefront West project was designed to turn the Shoreway into a multimodal tree-lined boulevard along the lakefront.
