Project Information &
Transportation Studies of Interest

This long-range plan sets the stage for ODOT’s transportation policies and investment strategies for the coming years. Public input from stakeholders of the state’s transportation system is an important element of this effort, so please visit the site and participate in the process!

The Transportation Review Advisory Council (TRAC) was established by the Ohio General Assembly in 1997, and charged with developing and overseeing a project selection process for major new transportation capacity projects, or projects in what is now known as the "Major New Capacity program." These are projects costing more than $12 million which add transportation capacity, and are critical to the mobility, economic development, and quality of life of the citizens of Ohio. Visit the TRAC site to find out more about the process and current list of projects under consideration.

Interstate 75 from the Auglaize County line to just north of SR 81 in Allen County and through the city of Lima will undergo a significant reconstruction from 2012 through 2015.

This bridge and its approaches are key elements of the nation’s Interstate Highway System. This facility, carrying both I-75 and I-71 traffic through the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area, has significant safety and capacity problems and is under study for improvement.

Information on a series of studies and infrastructure projects to rebuild portions of downtown Cleveland. This site includes access to the Innerbelt Plan (Central Viaduct Bridge), Lakefront West and Cleveland Opportunity Corridor areas.

This project is evaluating long-term transportation solutions necessary to meet growing usage patterns in the region extending from downtown Cincinnati and eastern Hamilton County to western Clermont County.

This corridor study seeks solutions to the problems of congestion, traffic delays and safety hazards on the I-70/I-71 split in downtown Columbus, Ohio. Public input is an important part of this study.

This study, in the Cincinnati/St. Bernard/ Elmwood Place area, aims to improve traffic flow, enhance safety and minimize impacts to adjacent properties along I-75 from the Paddock Road interchange on the north and the Western Hills Viaduct interchange on the south.

Interstate 75 through Dayton will be upgraded and modernized over the next 10-12 years.

Outcomes of the North Central Outerbelt Study (which includes the interchanges of I-270 with SR 315, US 23, and I-71) including various completed improvements and those slated for construction in the coming years.

The ODOT and ORDC state rail plan is intended to formulate a state vision for freight and passenger rail in the future and strategies to achieve that vision.

The Thru the Valley project involves the widening and reconstruction of I-75 from I-275 (on the north) to Paddock Road (on the south) in Hamilton County, Southwest Ohio.

Realignment and expansion of U.S. Route 24 from Ft. Wayne, IN to Port Toledo in northwest Ohio. This road is a major truck route and creates safety problems because of its current winding alignment. The new alignment will improves safety and increase mobility.

Information about upgrading U.S. 30 from a two-lane to a four-lane divided highway from Hancock County in northwest Ohio to State Route 11 east of Lisbon in northeast Ohio.

Phases II and III of this project are now underway for this important 'Appalachian Gateway' improvement. This long-awaited, environmentally sensitive upgrade will complete U.S. Route 33 as contiguous multi-lane divided corridor across Southeast Ohio.
