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.
A project that would build an overpass at a heavy traffic intersection in Findlay will now move on to its next step. The project would construct an overpass at the intersection of State Route 15 at County Road 180 in Findlay.
