S.R. 4 Bypass Widening

Butler County TID

The project involves converting this two-lane state route into a four-lane divided facility. A portion of the project will include a six-lane divided facility to handle the heaviest traffic volumes between Symmes and Tylersville Roads. Preliminary engineering and environmental documentation has been completed. The overall project has been broken into five separate construction phases. Final design activities have commenced on all but Phase 5. This project will feature the Super Street intersection at three locations along the corridor, a new and innovative intersection treatment in Ohio.

April 7, 2010, marked not only the groundbreaking of the S.R. 4B widening project, which features the first "Super Street" intersections designed in Ohio, but also ODOT’s 2010 southwest Ohio construction kickoff. ODOT’s upcoming 2010 season will be the largest construction season in state history and will involve investments in construction in every Ohio county and in every major mode of transportation. With the purpose of “igniting Ohio’s economic engine,” the 2010 season will surpass past investments by more than 30% for a total of more than $2 billion in transportation construction projects.
