June 18, 2026 — CLEVELAND — The City of Cleveland is advising motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians of upcoming lane restrictions associated with the Memorial Bridges Loop project. The project, which includes a shared-use path along Huron Road and U.S. 422 (Ontario Street) from Detroit Avenue to Eagle Avenue, will be constructed by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT).

Beginning Monday, June 22, and continuing through mid-November, the following traffic impacts will be in effect:

• Huron Road and Ontario Street between the Detroit-Superior Bridge and the Lorain-Carnegie Bridge will experience various lane restrictions.
• Huron Road eastbound between Detroit Avenue and Ontario Street will be reduced to a single lane. Additional turn lanes provided at intersections.
• Ontario Street southbound between Huron Road and Carnegie Avenue will be reduced to a single lane.
• Detroit Avenue eastbound at Huron Road will be reduced to one left-turn lane and one combined through/right-turn lane. The bicycle lane will merge with vehicle traffic through the intersection.
• Parking restrictions may also occur on Huron Rd. between W. 3rd. St. and Superior (northside/westbound)

The Memorial Bridges Loop project advances the goals of Cleveland Moves, the City’s comprehensive transportation plan to create a safer and more connected transportation network. Huron Road and Ontario Street represent one of the few remaining gaps in downtown Cleveland’s pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. The project will close that gap by connecting the separated bicycle lane and sidewalk on the Detroit-Superior Bridge to the shared-use path on the Lorain-Carnegie Bridge.

This route is already a popular loop for Cleveland runners, cyclists, and pedestrians. Once complete, the improvements will create a continuous, more comfortable connection between downtown, the Flats, and surrounding neighborhoods. Construction is expected to be completed in November 2026.

Motorists are encouraged to allow additional travel time, use caution in work zones, and follow all posted signage.
