Roads near Vice President JD Vance’s Cincinnati home will be closed this weekend.
We have contacted Vance’s team several times to inquire whether the Vice President is returning to the House and why he may be in the Cincinnati area this weekend. We haven’t heard back.
Officials from the City of Cincinnati announced the road closures Thursday.
These roads in East Walnut Hills will be closed beginning at 6:30 p.m. Friday and lasting until Monday morning:
- William Howard Taft Road between Torrence Parkway and East McMillan
- Collins Avenue at Riverside Drive
The city said drivers are encouraged to use Torrence Parkway, Madison Road and Woodburn Avenue as a detour while the closures are happening.
Those who live in the area will be able to access their neighborhood, but they must pass through one of three marked security checkpoints.
Here’s where the checkpoints will be located:
- William Howard Taft Road and Torrence Parkway
- William Howard Taft Road and East McMillan Street
- Riverside Drive and Collins Avenue
According to the city, residents should expect to see law enforcement at the checkpoints and allow extra time when driving to account for the security measures.
Delivery trucks and commercial services delivering to addresses near the road closures will be allowed in, but must pass through one of the checkpoints, according to the city.
