Attention drivers! Construction to Pearl Road will be starting next month. Here’s what you need to know.

Orange Barrel Season 

By: Alex Pikturna

Starting March 1st, the direction of traffic on Pearl Road (between State and Brookpark Road) will be changing from west side to the east side, with orange cones marking the closed off streets. Traffic will remain two-way. Motorists are asked to stay alert to any potential changes. Road conditions should return to normal in July.

Current construction is apart of an on going project to maintain and update Pearl Road, including road repair, building sidewalks, and water main installation. The total cost is an estimated $9.4 million, and is scheduled for completion by the end of this year. Any questions about the project should be directed to the City of Cleveland Project Inspector, James Miller at 216-857-0969.
