In March 2009, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) will be constructing a new diamond interchange at I-75 and Miamisburg-Springboro Road/Austin Pike in southern Montgomery County.  Work is scheduled to be complete by fall 2010.  The construction cost is $22 million.

 The benefits of this project include:

 §  Improved access to and from I-75

§  Congestion relief on adjacent state routes and existing interchanges on I-75

§  Compliment and support existing and proposed economic development

§  Widen Miamisburg-Springboro Road from two lanes to five lanes between Wood Road and SR 741

A two-leg Continuous Flow Intersection (CFI) at the intersections of SR 741 and Miamisburg-Springboro Road/ Austin Pike will be constructed.  To learn more information about a CFI, please visit www.abmb.com, or to see an animated video please visit our website at www.dot.state.oh.us/districts/d07/projects.

§   There will be no lane restrictions on I-75.  The current lanes of traffic will be maintained, but may be shifted during construction. 

§   Miamisburg-Springboro Road between Wood Road and SR 741 will be detoured to 741, Pennyroyal Road, Wood Road back to Miamisburg-Springboro Road. 

§   The southbound ramp from I-675 to I-75 will have one lane closed during construction. 

§   Traffic on SR 741 will be shifted.  However, all present lanes will be maintained.

Wherever possible, ODOT works to reduce congestion and ease the effects of construction on the traveling public. ODOT will require the contractor to maintain the current lanes of traffic on interstate routes.
