Lane restrictions have been lifted on state Route 93 in Lawrence County, as well as on three other Lawrence County routes, following heavy rains and last week's flooding of numerous creeks, streams and rivers.
In addition to S.R. 93 at Pedro, S.R. 7 at Athalia, S.R. 217 near Linnville, and S.R. 243 near C.R. 36 (McKinney Creek Road) and the community of Getaway are all open to traffic. However, S.R. 141 is still reduced to one lane near T.R. 153 (Arabia-Gallia Road), south of Arabia, and at C.R. 4 (Etna Waterloo Road), just west of the Gallia County line.
While these routes are open to traffic, S.R. 243 is still closed near C.R. 2 (Indian Guyan Road) and its junction with S.R. 7 at Bradrick, and S.R. 650 is closed at its junction with U.S. 52 at Hanging Rock, as well as just south of its intersection with S.R. 522.
The following routes in Adams, Brown and Scioto counties remain CLOSED today, March 14, as well:
• S.R. 247 at U.S. 52 and Wrightsville in Adams County;
• S.R. 221 at U.S. 52 and Higginsport in Brown County;
• S.R. 239 at U.S. 52 and West Portsmouth in Scioto County;

• S.R. 73/104 South to the Second Street Bridge and Portsmouth; and
• Second Street Bridge from Portsmouth to S.R. 73/104 North.
All closures will remain in effect until further notice, and motorists are reminded that crossing any closed route is strictly prohibited. Motorists are also advised of the need for additional caution when crossing any route which remains open but where standing water may be present.
