Olentangy Trail Reroute Around Ohio Stadium

From May 15 through late November 2023, the Olentangy Trail will be closed between Woody Hayes Drive and John Herrick Drive. Trail users will be rerouted along a marked detour east of Ohio Stadium, south through Buckeye Grove before crossing Herrick Drive, to Cannon Drive and 12th Avenue, prior to returning to the trail.

Cannon Closes North of Morrill Tower

From March 13 through March 17, Cannon Drive, just north of Morrill Tower, will be closed in both directions for utility work as part of the Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 project. CABS will be rerouted via Herrick Drive with no service to the Drake and Towers stops. CABS On-Demand will continue to service the mid-towers stops.

Rooted in Sustainability

With more than 17,000 trees on the Columbus campus, green space and the overall tree canopy are important aspects of Ohio State’s landscape architecture. Facilities Operations and Development Landscape Services regularly plants trees to support sustainability and campus beautification. When a tree must be removed, multiple replacement trees often pop up as a result.
