November 12, 2024, Press Release from the Ohio Department of Transportation District 1: LIMA, Ohio (Nov. 12, 2024) – The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Hancock County Engineer’s office are partnering to enhance safety along State Route 15. Next week, work will begin to permanently remove access to State Route 15 from County Road 8. “With the County Road 180 overpass and U.S. 68 roundabout complete, this section of State Route 15 is ready to function as a limited-access highway,” said Chris Hughes, District 1 deputy director. “The closure will redirect traffic to interchange access points located nearby at U.S. 68 and State Route 37, which are a safer way to enter and exit the busy highway,” he said.
Plans for a major road construction project in Shawnee Township are underway. The Allen County Engineer has secured federal funding that will cover the majority of a 2.8-million-dollar project that will make improvements at both the Shawnee Road and Breese Road intersection along with the South Dixie and Breese Road intersection. Breese Road between the two intersections will also get improvements along with new pavement. A recent study has been completed on what changes would increase the safety of those areas.
