The Ohio Department of Transportation – District 6 issued an update on the State Road 750/Powell Road project on Thursday, March 24.
An early spring means crews have already resumed work on State Route 750, more commonly known as Powell Road. The $6 million project that began last fall will reduce congestion and improve safety by:
- Widening SR 750 to five lanes between Gibson Drive and Old Sawmill Road
- Building a 10 foot multi-use path on the north side of SR 750
- Constructing dual left turn lanes at Sawmill Parkway and SR 750 for northbound, southbound and eastbound traffic at the intersection
Timeline
Now until the end of May:
- SR 750 traffic has been shifted to the north so crews can widen the south side of SR 750

- Sawmill Parkway will be reduced to one northbound lane north of SR 750 for one week
