Opportunity Corridor Project Near Completion
In one week, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) will be cutting the ribbon on the Opportunity Corridor, a project aimed at connecting Interstate 490 to University Circle that’s been many years in the making.
“The Opportunity Corridor Project is a project that came to fruition when we were studying the Cleveland innerbelt plan a couple of decades ago,” says Amanda McFarland with ODOT.
It’s taken just over $300 million and many years of studies, discussions, and planning.
McFarland says, “In 2004, it really took off again and then again in 2010, we really started hitting the ground running.”
The Opportunity Corridor, a three-mile boulevard running from I-490 at East 55th to University Circle, will finally cut the ceremonial ribbon on Wednesday, November 3.
