VAN WERT —The Ohio Transportation Review Advisory Council drafted a slate of new projects to potentially receive funding through the state department of transportation’s Major New Capacity Program and among them is a project in Van Wert.
The state would introduce new funding to the tune of $1.4 million for the removal of an intersection on the U.S. 30 interchange with Liberty Union.
The project would then re-align the intersection to connect to the U.S. 224/U.S. 30 interchange.
ODOT would also widen U.S. 127 as part of the project.
The project would start in 2025.
The program would offer $127.3 million in new funding for projects on the list.
The public can comment until Feb. 28 by emailing [email protected].
TRAC will vote for the final list at its Feb. 28 meeting.
