The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is starting their construction season strong with a multitude of projects that are sure to improve the safety and mobility of motorists in the Buckeye State.
The following construction and maintenance projects are scheduled to start next week in Lawrence County, weather permitting:
- State Route 93/U.S. 52 Double Roundabout - Work has begun on this safety improvement project. One lane of traffic will be maintained each direction on State Route 93 throughout construction. Additional impacts will include narrowed and shifted travel lanes. The ramp from State Route 93 to U.S. 52 East and the ramp from U.S. 52 West to State Route 93 will close for 90 days for partial construction of the roundabouts. During these closures traffic for both ramps will be detoured via U.S. 52 West to State Route 650 to U.S. 52 East. Construction is estimated to be completed in the fall.
- U.S. 52 Slide Repair - Principal construction has been completed along the U.S. 52 Westbound on-ramp from the Nick Joe Rahal II Bridge. Traffic is currently no affected. Construction is estimated to be complete in the spring.
- State Route 775 Slide Repair - Work will begin this Wednesday for a slide repair project southeast of Greasy Ridge Road. State Route 775 will be closed for three days for this construction. Traffic will be detoured via State Route 217, State Route 378, and State Route141. It is estimated to be completed Friday.
- U.S. 52 Resurfacing - The resurfacing project on U.S. 52 between the village of Hanging Rock and Crabtree Hollow Road continues. At least one lane of traffic will be maintained in each direction on U.S. 52 throughout construction. Additional impacts may include shoulder closures and temporary exit closures. Work will begin with joint and full—depth spot repairs. It is estimated to be completed this summer.
