Desperate Brunswick residents appeal to DeWine over I-71 interchange at Boston Road. An engineering firm's study even predicted it wouldn't alleviate congestion on Route 82.
The city of Strongsville’s push for a new interchange off I-71 at Boston Road is nothing new, with efforts dating back to the 1980s. However, by adding a measure to the state's transportation budget bill"to ensure that limited access exit and entrance ramps to interstate highways exist at least every 4.5 miles in adjacent municipal corporations,” state Representative Tom Patton has made a breakthrough where other efforts have failed.
“At the last minute, basically the 11th hour in the Ohio House, Representative Tom Patton out of Strongsville put in a new section of the Ohio Revised Code,” said Hanek. “It doesn't say Brunswick or Strongsville, but it's tailored exactly just for this area.” Some Brunswick residents fear that connecting the Foltz Industrial Parkway is indeed the ultimate goal, which could mean massive trucks coming through the residential neighborhood.
Since Gov. Mike DeWine signed the budget, Brunswick residents on the border of Strongsville have been left in the lurch. Although no final plan has been made publicly available,and conducted by Euthenics Inc., a Strongsville-based civil engineering company, looked at the, “impact and feasibility of five alternatives for providing access to I-71 from Boston Rd.”
“The way we found out is just unbelievably underhanded and slimy,” Riedel said. “We had no idea whatsoever. It was never brought to a vote for the city. The city council was blindsided.”
