The City of Circleville, in coordination with the Ohio Department of Transportation, is studying a bridge or under the Norfolk Southern Railroad (a railroad grade separation) in the City. Improvements will reduce congestion, improve mobility for motorists, reduce the number of crashes that occur in the area, and will better accommodate the needs of the traveling public. We are currently in the planning phase of project development and expect this phase of work to be completed by the end of this year. A study will be prepared and compare alternatives to meet the project’s purpose and need. This study will evaluate alternatives for the railroad grade separation in the City. Detailed design and construction phases would follow selection of the alternative to carry forward. Construction will not take place until planning is complete, pending the availability of funding.
