They should reroute traffic along I-670 and close down the entire split...that's my idea with that one....

That was what we did here when we wanted to rebuild/upgrade MN 36 between McKnight Rd and I-694. MN 36 was completely shut down for a few months; traffic was detoured onto I-35E and I-694.

the only problem with that idea is you would simply shift the congestion further east...along with a massive rebuilding of the I-270/670 split near the airport to take the I-70 through traffic PLUS massive rebuild of the east I-70-270 interchange to once again accommodate all the through traffic

if they decided to route 71 north up on Ohio 315, several exits would require massive reworking to meet Interstate standards (from OSU south to the West Split, 315 is almost like I-95 in Connecticut in exit density at spots...so one or two would have to close and reroute traffic to the remaining exits)...plus then you have the issue of funnelling all that traffic back north tio I-71....

a prime example of how poor planning back in the day is coming back to bite citizens in the tuckous now!

And as a temporary problem for a permanent fix, that's exactly what needs to be done.  Commuters will just have to rework their schedules for awhile until the thing is done right.
