CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Several streets in Cincinnati remain barricaded because they still havenât been cleared of snow and ice, making them unsafe to drive.
The Cincinnati Police Department put up âroad closedâ signs up to keep drivers off of those streets until they can be treated.
âWhen the barricades are on the streets, a lot of times those are streets with steep hills so a lot of times we want to prevent citizens from going down,â City of Cincinnati Superintendent of Traffic and Road Conditions Jarrod Bolden said.
