Detour signs will be posted along portions of I-70 in the downtown Columbus area this weekend to allow for the demolition of a bridge. 

Ohio Department of Transportation officials say I-70 will close tonight in both directions between State Route 315 and I-71.  Crews will spend the weekend demolishing the Grant Avenue Bridge.  Weather permitting, the westbound lanes will reopen Saturday morning. All lanes will be open by Sunday morning.
