Point Improvement Project
The Point improvement project will relieve congestion and increase safety along U.S. 36 (William Street) and Ohio 37 (Central Avenue) by increasing the number of vehicular lanes beneath the Norfolk Southern Railroad bridge. On average, 25,000 vehicles a day pass below the bridge, with traffic models projecting that number to increase to almost 40,000 vehicles a day by 2040. Lengthy backups are routine during peak-hour traffic conditions.
