Stuck on I-480 during your Friday morning commute? Wet concrete is to blame.

Reporter at News 5 Cleveland

Were you stuck in traffic on I-480 this morning? Maybe you were late to work or getting the kids to school and couldn't figure out why. The Ohio Department of Transportation says wet concrete is to blame.'I saw a joke on Twitter it was backed up to Indiana,' said Brent Kovacs, Public Information Officer ODOT District 12.Kovacs continued, 'it was backed up to Ridge if not a little further. It was far.'ODOT said that this project has been working overnight all summer long.

Kovacs said, 'It's hard to say. We don't know if the concrete they used was not the correct concrete or if it was too cold or something like that, but we haven't had any problem so far with the repairs, but for whatever reason, we did last night.'ODOT said the contractor on the project is Catts Construction. News 5 reached out to the company for comment and has yet to hear back.
