Ohio neighborhood fears landslide as retaining wall slips
SUMMARY: In Portsmouth, Ohio, a retaining wall has been slipping for about five years, causing fear among residents like the Yuri family who moved in just before the slip began. Despite support beams installed two years ago, cracks in the wall allow water to gush through, flooding parts of the road and raising concerns about a potential catastrophic landslide. Local councilman Shawn Dun highlights questions about the wall’s stability and estimates repair costs near $2 million, with the city seeking grants to fund the work. Residents anxiously await repairs, hoping the problem will be resolved soon to prevent disaster.
A cloud of concern hovers over one Portsmouth neighborhood. Those living along Richardson Road wonder how much longer a retaining wall will hold and keep a hillside from sliding that would damage their property. The support wall began slipping 5 years ago. A couple years later, support beams were put in place for a problem that those living along the street say is a ticking time bomb.

Road-widening project gets completion date, property issues remain unclear
SUMMARY: The Cross Lanes road-widening project, expanding Route 622 from Golf Mountain Road to Route 62 near Andrew Jackson Middle School, has resumed after a ten-month pause. Originally set for completion in June 2025, the new completion date is February 2027 due to delays caused by utility pole relocations. Construction is causing traffic congestion, especially around the Kroger turning light, which is being studied for timing adjustments. Despite frustrations, officials emphasize the long-term benefits. Property issues, including damage claims and easements, remain unresolved. Kanawha County lawmakers continue to provide updates as the project progresses.
