SYMMES TOWNSHIP, Ohio — The Hamilton County Engineer has announced that Hopewell Road will be closed at the railroad crossing between Loveland-Madeira Road and the Little Miami River in Symmes Township for the replacement of railroad ties and rails beginning on Thursday, October 10, through Sunday, October 13.

Long-time and award-winning Cincinnati-area journalist, radio show host, podcast producer and photographer Joe Wessels is the founder and publisher (and kinda the do-everything guy) of Loveland Local News. Previously, Wessels was the Cincinnati City Hall and Hamilton County reporter for The Cincinnati Post and a weekly columnist for Cincinnati CityBeat where he regularly broke news. Wessels moved to Loveland in 2014 and quickly realized Loveland would be a great place to fulfill his dream of creating his own online news and information publication.
