Traffic steady among Dayton roads, highways as NATO assembly reconvenes today

The first electronic signboard greets drivers coming north on Main Street more than a mile south of downtown, and it’s followed by others warning them of street closures and detours. Large concrete K-rails stretch across Main Street just north of the RTA hub, ensuring that no vehicle traffic gets through. But the block after block of 8-to-12-foot high metal fencing is the more visually arresting feature. The NATO security zone in the heart of downtown, a handful of blocks in each direction, was still a work in progress Wednesday morning, as vehicle traffic was blocked off but pedestrians still wandered through.
