Alert: Traffic Alert: Hudson Street Bridge temp closed

If only there was a convenient and reliable way to get to the stadium other than in a car...

 

Hang glider?

 

I've seen people actually parachute into the stadium before. No, seriously.

 

Have to watch for that low flying air traffic approaching Port Columbus, though.

 

Just to be clear, if I usually enter the stadium via 17th Ave and leave via 17th Ave Im not affected by this in the least. Is that correct?

 

right

 

Except that there is probably a ton more traffic than usual.

 

If you are coming from the north on 71, it is actually easier to get in by exiting at Hudson, since there is no traffic coming across the bridge.

On the way out, you can still set to 71 and head north by just going on to Weber.

 

Thanks to a late decision to go, I showed up later than usual last night, maybe around 7:10-7:15, and the exit off of 71southbound to Hudson was horrible. All sorts of people were trying to cut in (far more than usual) and traffic was not flowing well, despite there being no traffic coming across the bridge at all.

 

Highlighted your main problem there. Both exits are always like that that close to kickoff.

 

17th from the north isn't usually that bad, but I will be back to coming from the south next month after I move again.

 

I take Hudson exit from the south, from the north it's always backed up.
