Motorists traveling through Logan County should plan for ongoing construction and traffic restrictions this week as the Ohio Department of Transportation continues several paving and improvement projects. All work is weather permitting.
The biggest impact remains the State Route 274 closure between State Route 235 and State Route 117, which is expected to continue for approximately 150 days while crews build a new roundabout at the intersection of U.S. 33 and State Route 274.
The posted detour follows State Route 235 to State Route 708 to U.S. 33 to State Route 117.
Several additional highways will have intermittent single-lane restrictions with traffic maintained by flaggers while crews repave the roadways:
- State Route 235: Between State Route 720 and the Hardin County line from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- State Route 274: Between the Rushsylvania corporation limits and State Route 273 from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- State Route 366: Between State Route 235 and U.S. 33 from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- State Route 117: Between the Hardin County line and State Route 274 from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- State Route 245: Between the Mad River east of West Liberty and the Champaign County line from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- State Route 287: Between State Route 245 and U.S. 33 from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- State Route 638: Between U.S. 68 and Township Road 51 from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Drivers are encouraged to slow down, use caution in work zones, and allow extra travel time while construction is underway.
