Vandalia Mayor Rick Gottman reports this morning that the entrance ramp onto Interstate 70 at the mile marker 63 exit is back open. The entrance ramp has been closed for the past 9 days as I-DOT was constructing an extra lane that will be used while traffic is reduced to one lane on both sides due to bridge construction on the east bound lanes. Mayor Gottman also says that I-DOT has worked with the City and County on their requests for some safety issues. Gottman says I-DOT has put in a turnaround for emergency vehicles and they are also leaving up a message board to better prepare drivers for the reduction of lanes and traffic entering the highway.
