CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -- Traffic was slowed but not entirely blocked on both sides of I-75 in Camp Washington Saturday night in a six-car crash.

Six cars were involved in a crash on Northbound 75, and one of them was launched over the center guardrail, landing upright in the median off the southbound side.

Injuries were reported at first on both the northbound and southbound sides of the highway, but no one was hurt enough to go to the hospital.  A district fire chief said 6 cars were involved, with all but one ending up scattered on the northbound side of the highway, causing a long backup on that side, with a minimal backup on the southbound side. 

A witness told him that two cars involved in the crash were driving extremely fast.

Inbound Columbia Parkway down to one lane for Friday rush hour

 

CINCINNATI (FOX19) - The westbound curb lanes of Columbia Parkway between Martin Drive and the Third St./Fort Washington Way exit ramp are closed and will remain closed for morning rush hour on Friday. 

As crews were cleaning up and ready to open Columbia Parkway after removing an unstable portion of the hillside that began moving earlier this week, the remaining hillside also began moving.  Engineers decided for the safety of the traveling public to put the lane closure back in place until the hillside can be stabilized again.  Crews will mobilize early Friday and begin work on removing the remaining unstable dirt.

Columbia Parkway is reduced down to one lane, between Martin Street and the Third Street exit.  All exit and entrance ramps will remain open at all times.  Drivers are encouraged to reduce their speed and use caution when approaching the closure area.
