MACEDONIA – Although work is not scheduled to be done until fall 2024 or spring 2025, City Council has OK’d a joint agreement with Twinsburg, Glenwillow and Oakwood Village for improvements to the Shepard, Richmond, Broadway and Ravenna roads intersection.
Council took action Feb. 25. Earlier in the week, Twinsburg Council approved the agreement, and Macedonia officials said the other communities have either followed suit or will soon.
About $2.07 million of the estimated cost has been pledged from sources such as the Ohio Public Works Commission, Community Development Block Grants and federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality improvements program.
