THE CLEVELAND BROWNS ARE PROPOSING $35 MILLION TO FIX THE I 71 IN SNOW ROAD INTERCHANGE THROUGH BROOK PARK. IT'S A MAJOR PROJECT TO HELP ALLEVIATE TRAFFIC NEAR THE BROWNS NEW STADIUM. NOW, THE FUNDS ABOUT HALF OF WHAT CITY LEADERS AND THE BROWNS REQUESTED WOULD GO TOWARD UPGRADES TO RAMPS, ROADS AND PEDESTRIAN PATHWAYS TO EASE TRAFFIC AROUND 71480 AND CLEVELAND HOPKINS AIRPORT. THIS PROPOSAL IS STILL IN THE DRAFT STAGE WITH PUBLIC COMMENT OPEN NOW AND A FINAL VOTE EXPECTED TO COME SOMETIME NEXT MONTH.
