Are you prepared for the onslaught of major road projects that could seriously alter traffic to and around your business?

Two road projects in Toledo are expected to have a significant and prolonged effect on traffics patterns throughout the city:  the recently begun resurfacing of Monroe Street between Crary Drive and Central Avenue and the reconstruction of Secor Road between Central Avenue and Monroe Street.

Get ready for these changes NOW before they chip away at your customer base and, ultimately, your revenue.

The Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce is working to help all businesses in the affected areas prepare for the upcoming changes.  Even if your business is not currently involved with the Chamber, we invite you to attend our TASBA Luncheon Presented by Huntington which will give you the information you need to assess the impact to your business and ways to plan now to minimize any negative effects.

Robin Whitney, Commissioner of Engineering Services for the City of Toledo and Warren Henry, PE, Vice President of Transportation with the Toledo Metropolitan Council of Governments (TMACOG) will give an overview of the road construction projects and the expected impacts.  Following their presented the Chamber's Business Development Services staff will provide information to help get your business ready to deal with whatever construction season brings your way!

Finally, luncheon attendees will hear about the success one local company had in managing a construction-related business slowdown by staying ahead of the issues, as representatives from Smitty's Automotive describe how they dealt with the situation and not only survived, but actually grew the business.
