Miami Road Intersection Improvements The Village is studying how to optimize the Miami/Indianview/Hiawatha/Rembold/ Murray/Lytle Woods intersection for traffic calming and user safety for the Mariemont Connector crossing. A public meeting was held Nov. 16th in the Mariemont Elementary Cafeteria, where the public was invited to chat with the Village Engineer Chris Ertel and traffic engineers from Choice One Engineering as well as view the concept drawings and description of the proposed plan. Concept drawings and description are now posted on the Village website at mariemont.org. You can also offer suggestions or email for more info to info@mariemont.org.
