Ohio targets 24 bridges

June 6, 2023

Program budget is $28 million

The Ohio Department of Transportation has identified 24 bridges in the state. The budget for the program is just under $28 million.

The money will be used to “repair, replace, or demolish” the bridges, according to a department press release. The projects include the total replacement of 16 bridges, the repair of four bridges, and the demolition of four bridges that have been out of use for several years.

“Providing this funding is another example of how the state can work to support our communities to ensure that local transportation infrastructure is safe for those traveling on our roads and bridges," said Governor Mike DeWine in a statement. “By repairing and replacing these bridges, we can better ensure the safety of travelers in the future.”
