Whitehall adds more federal funding to fix Broad-Hamilton intersection
ThisWeek group
A major reconstruction project at East Broad Street and Hamilton Road is expected to improve traffic flow and reduce the number of accidents – but though motorists will have to wait a bit longer for the improvements, the plan is one step closer to completion.
Whitehall officials said the city received a grant of $1.2 million from the Ohio Public Works Commission to modify the intersection. That grant will be added to the roughly $9 million in state and federal funds the city already has received for the project.
The nine-month fix, which will start no sooner than the end of 2022, is expected to reduce traffic accidents by 32% and reduce wait times by 1 minute, said Zach Woodruff, director of development and public service for Whitehall.
