(Harrison, Oh.) - The Ohio Department of Transportation's (ODOT) Transportation Review Advisory Council (TRAC) has approved investing $319.3 million into 14 major transportation projects in 14 counties. 

The project list includes $295.2 million for construction and development funding on eigh projects, $9.1 million for new project development funding on three projects, and $15.0 million for additional project development funding on three projects. The funding is allocated through 2028.

Locally, Hamilton County will receive $7.1 million for a widening project on Dry Fork Road at Interstate 74. 

The project falls under new funding (Tier I) to widen the Dry Fork Road (CR 14) bridge to install left turn lanes onto the eastbound and westbound entrance ramps to I-74. The project also includes widening the east and westbound exit ramps, eastbound entrance ramp, and Dry Fork Road south of the interchange.

The Tier I designation means the project falls under a group of projects recommended for construction during the upcoming four-year construction period.

According ODOT, the Dry Fork Road project is scheduled for 2028.
