Breaking: 2 found dead after Springfield home fire

Warren County has multitude of paving projects this summer

This is a view of the new King Avenue Bridge construction over Little Miami River. The new $22 million bridge and road project will have a two-lane configuration, but the lanes will be widened, and safety shoulders will be added in both directions. The new structure will be built upstream of the existing bridge crossing. In addition, a new 10-foot multi-use path will be built on the new bridge that will separate pedestrians from traffic, and a tunnel will be built for a portion of the Little Miami Scenic Bike Trail, which will separate the trail from Grandin Road. The old bridge will be demolished in the coming months. CONTRIBUTED: WARREN COUNTY ENGINEER'S OFFICE AND OHIO UAS CENTER

Warren County Engineer Neil Tunison said 2023 “will be an average year for paving projects.”

This year’s road resurfacing costs are estimated at $6 million, he said. Another $325,000 will be spent chip-sealing selected roads in Turtlecreek, Wayne and Washington townships.

The annual road resurfacing costs are in addition to large projects already underway such as the Shaker Road bridge replacement, the William C. Good Boulevard extension/Scholl Road improvement, the King Avenue at King Court intersection improvements, the King Avenue sidewalk and storm drainage improvement project, the Fields-Ertel Road widening project and the King Avenue Bridge improvement project over the Little Miami River.

In addition to working with the Ohio Department of Transportation, the Warren County Transportation Improvement District and other entities, Tunison said there is between $40 million to $45 million in construction projects underway throughout the county.
