In Ohio

Consider this page your gateway to various tidbits about the last interstate NOT to be built in Ohio. From here you will be to read about the failure of some of our elected officials to sway popular opinion in favor of a new road, text from a brochure advoacting the construction of I-73 in Ohio, maps showing the various routes that were under consideration for I-73, and photos showing some of the troublespots for construction and other areas I-73 could have gone through.
Do understand, this page does NOT try to make a case for or against the construction of another interstate in Ohio. This collection is part self-examination (of our transportation desires) and part make believe.
