The event will benefit charities and programs in North Olmsted and our larger community. 2) State Route 252 at I-480 is under construction and scheduled for completion by mid- summer. Stearns Road northbound from I-480 is under construction and scheduled for completion by the end of the year. We expect to have the temporary roadway in at Stearns Road in May. Until that goes in, motorists can expect additional delays on that roadway. Motorists are encouraged to avoid these locations if possible. We are working with the Ohio Department of Transportation to place additional informational signs along I-480 informing motorists of the work and allowing them to choose either the Lorain Road or Clague Road exits to avoid the construction. Currently, the I-480 westbound ramp onto State Route 252 south is closed. 3) Tax assistance for seniors through the AARP is available at the Senior Center on Wednesdays through April 11.
