Erie Avenue & Murray Road Safety Improvements
The Erie Avenue & Murray Road Safety Improvements Project is a planned safety and connectivity project along Erie Avenue from Saybrook Avenue to Murray Road, and along Murray Road near its intersection with La Crosse Avenue.
The project will redesign key intersections, enhance existing bike lanes by adding protection, fill a gap in the sidewalk network on Murray Road, and improve connections to the existing trail system, making the corridor safer and more comfortable for people walking, biking, and driving through Hyde Park, Oakley, and Madisonville.
The project is currently in the design phase. Community feedback collected at the open house and from this website will help shape final design details. Construction is slated for Summer 2027. This project is primarily funded through Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) and Metro Transportation Improvement Fund (MTIF) grants.
47% of people currently traveling along this section of Erie Avenue feel "Somewhat or Very Uncomfortable."
Proposed Design - Section A-A: Erie Avenue from Saybrook Ave to Duck Creek
- Cross Section A-A: An on-street example view of the roadway lanes and right-of-way use.
- Cross Section B-B: An on-street example view of the roadway lanes and right-of-way use.
