"Cleveland's older suburbs don't expect to stop construction of a freeway interchange that they say will drain more people and businesses from Cuyahoga County, but leaders hope to win similar battles down the road...First Suburbs Consortium says projects like a proposed third I-90 interchange in Avon, just across the Lorain County border, disperse Northeast Ohio's population.
