The Ohio Department of Transportation will be out patching potholes in each direction on Interstate 75 from U.S. 35 to State Route 725 between now and 6 a.m.

ODOT wrote on social media Thursday afternoon that drivers should expect lane closures during that time.

News Center 7 spoke with ODOT who told us that potholes tend to pop up around big shifts in temperatures.

“The work that’s going to be done (overnight) is going to be a more permanent fix,” said Lornyn Bryson of ODOT. “This would be a very similar process to what we do in the spring.”

These repairs are expected to happen mainly in the Moraine and West Carrollton area.
