• Buckle up! Next I-77 project could last until 2031 (fox8.com) — Major I-77 pavement replacement is planned between Cleveland and Cuyahoga Heights, with work expected from spring 2027 through summer 2031 and an estimated cost of $95.8 million. Two lanes will stay open during construction, but every on- and off-ramp in the project area will close at various times, so local drivers should expect long-term detours and delays.
