The Columbus Dispatch : Work on I-71 runs into dead end: "So weighty was the decision to widen the highway that a train was once approved to ferry passengers daily between Columbus and Cleveland to help relieve traffic during the construction. After cost projections for the train service increased, ODOT dropped funding for it in 2000."
If only they dropped funding for the road and kept the train.
