County Line Road project proposed

The City of Kettering is proposing improvements to County Line Road from the intersection of Dorothy Lane to the intersection of Vale Drive. Development in the County Line Road surrounding area has created a demand for additional lanes to accommodate traffic. Over the next 20 years, this corridor is expected to see a further increase to the average daily traffic flow.

We encourage those interested in the potential project to watch the video posted on the City of Kettering website https://www. ketteringoh.org/county-line-roadproject/ or call our Engineering Department at 937-296-2436 for more details.

The following improvements are proposed as part of the County Line project: widen the roadway to five lanes with two through lanes in each direction and a center left turn lane; replace the sidewalks on the west side of the corridor with a new 10-foot multi-use trail which connects to the existing trail to the north; new 5-foot sidewalk along the east side of the road; new 5-foot tree lawn between the roadway and the multi-use trail; reconstruct the traffic signal at Tonawanda Trail; complete needed work on a tributary of the Little Beaver Creek; and relocate the existing street light system along the County Line project corridor.

We encourage anyone seeking more information about the proposed project to attend the public meeting on Wednesday, July 18, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Charles I. Lathrem Senior Center.
