Caution: Avoid Graham and Fishcreek Intersection Friday

The city is asking motorists to avoid that intersection until at least 5:30 p.m. Nov. 16, 2012 because of construction.

The road paving/construction project will be completed this afternoon by 5:30 p.m., after which time the area should be open." Click here to view a life traffic map of Stow.
