The Chelsea FC vs. Manchester City soccer game will take place at Ohio Stadium on Saturday, August 3 at 5:30 p.m. Motorists should plan for increased parking demand and travel delays on and around campus from approximately 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
From July 1 through mid-August, west stadium parking lot access will be available only from the south via Cannon Drive. The Sisson Hall pedestrian bridge will be closed July 1 to July 31. Pedestrians will be redirected to Woody Hayes Drive and John Herrick Drive to access areas east of Olentangy River. From July 8 through July 22, the west stadium parking lot will be closed.
Beginning May 28 and continuing through early July, the Olentangy Trail reroute along Cannon Drive, between the 12th Avenue SR-315 southbound onramp and Herrick Drive, will be moved to the east side of Cannon Drive and north side of Herrick Drive.
A stormwater detention system with the ability to hold up to seven acre-feet (more than two million gallons) of storm water is being installed at the Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 site.
The Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 project is on track to be completed by January 2025. FOD and construction crews are working on utility installation. Certified flood levee construction is paused, per weather restrictions, and will resume in April.
