I-71 to I-70 thru Columbus Ohio

Question

Heading west in a few weeks and trying to decide whether to take this route, came thru last Sept and traffic and construction was awful.Coming from central Pa, might take rt 22 to route 66 and than I 70 west.Any suggestions?

It's going to depend when you're going to hit it, morning or early evening I'd avoid it, midday, late evening or night it's fine.

Construction through the city is still a nightmare.  Using 270, around the city, is not bad.....outside of rush hour.

What about US30?   If not too far north, good road. About 60 miles north of Columbus and 4 lane most (if not all) of it.  No problems from Indiana to Wooster, OH a month ago.  Only construction was at Mansfield.

Next time thru that area I'll check US 30 out. Thanks for info

Downtown sucks but I270 is so rough you may lose teeth or bruise kidneys going around. Choose your poison.
