On January 13, Cincinnati City Council's Economic Development Committee will consider an ordinance that is necessary to keep the Ohio Department of Transportation on schedule for it's planned Colerain-West Fork-Virginia transportation improvement project.
The ordinance would serve as final legislation indicating that the City is intending to move forward on the project.
The $3.8 million Colerain Corridor TSM Project will include:
- Widening Colerain Avenue between the Beekman/I-74 ramps and the West Fork-Virginia intersection
- Additional left-turn lanes
- New pavement, curbs and sidewalks
- New signals and lighting
- Improved storm drainage
- Signal synchronization between West Fork Road and Virginia Avenue
The intersection accommodates 33,000 motorists, pedestrians, buses, and bicycles daily.
