Powell • May 13, 2025
Good morning, Powell. All roads lead to change in Union County this week β literally. SR 161/Post Rd. will go dark overnight starting Saturday, while US 36 remains closed until mid-July. With multiple long-term projects stretching into 2025, including the SR 736 bridge rehabilitation, your GPS might become your most valuable possession. Thankfully, detours are marked for all affected routes, giving drivers a fighting chance to navigate this infrastructure obstacle course.
Meanwhile, democracy is in action at tonight's Marysville City Council meeting, where seven key ordinances await decisions. Medical marijuana regulations and major annexations of over 550 acres top the agenda, alongside amendments supporting the Kia expansion project. The 7 p.m. session welcomes public attendance both in-person and virtually β a front-row seat to local government that doesn't require navigating those pesky road closures.
