About I-670


I-670 in Columbus has featured an incomplete stretch between Grandview Avenue and OH 315 for several years now. In June 2002, this stretch was finally completed. However, a new alignment of I-670 is currently under construction to tie in the newer stretch with the older alignment. This gap, between OH 315 and US 23, is slated for completion in October 2003, at which time I-670 will finally become a complete route. For more information on the completion of the final gap of I-670, please visit the ODOT I-670 Project Information Page.


Western Terminus



The western terminus of I-670 is at a partial interchange with I-70 (Exit 96) in Columbus. Although the END tab here is incompatible with the I-670 shield, this is nonetheless the only Interstate terminus in Ohio which is marked with a shield, versus either a guide sign or no signage at all.

This is the actual end of I-670, as I-70 West comes in on the right side.

Here is a view of the beginning of I-670 East, as it splits off from I-70 East. When the new section of I-670 opens in late 2003, three lanes will be available for I-670 East, while I-70 East maintains two lanes. For now, two lanes are allotted for traffic using I-670 East.

Eastern Terminus



Following a three mile multiplex with US 62, I-670 arrives at its eastern terminus at I-270 (Exit 35) in Gahanna, just north of Port Columbus International Airport. This guide sign at the airport interchange warns of I-670's impending end, 1.25 miles ahead.

I-670 East has four lanes as it heads into the I-270 interchange. US 62, which continues on as a solo route beyond I-270, maintains the center two lanes. Meanwhile, the right and right-center lanes provide access to I-270 South, and the left and left-center lanes lead to I-270 North.
