The College Hill community has voted to maintain the existing traffic safety measures on North Bend Road from Hamilton to Stella avenues. The “Complete Streets” design, implemented in August 2022, reduces the number of driving lanes from four to two. A community advisory vote revealed that the majority of residents prefer the current format, which includes one traffic lane in each direction, a protected buffer lane, and a permanent parking lane. The outcome of this vote will be shared with the Cincinnati Department of Transportation and Engineering, who will make the final decision on the future of the road design.
