TR 43 Overpass - East of Fostoria
Posted: Fri Jan 24, 2020 10:25 am
I was looking at the ODOT Statewide Transportation Improvement Program list, which includes all planned road projects in Ohio, and came across this description of a project near Fostoria, shown as being in SFY 2020:

In trying to look up more about it, I discovered that this was apparently first proposed and talked about back in the early 00's. Here's a diagram, which I think is from the original plans, so I'm not quite sure if it's exactly what will be done now. It calls for an overpass on TR 43 over the B&O, and a new connector road built from TR 43 north of the overpass to Bulger Ave in Fostoria:Description: Railroad grade separation for
TR-43 and CSX RR in the city of Fostoria.
Construct overpass on TR-43 with connector
road on east side of Fostoria; Perform
necessary related work. (Const and RW
funding should be 90% GSP, 5% County, 5%
RR). See PID 23112 f Work Type: Railroad
Grade Separation Termini: TR-43 and CSX
RR
