HAM CR 14 3.41 dry fork south

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $650,000 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) on September 11, 2025, for the HAM CR 14 3.41 Dry Fork South project in Hamilton County, Ohio. The project delivers intersection and traffic flow improvements through the addition of a northbound right turn lane from Dry Fork Road to the eastbound Interstate 74 on-ramp and a right turn lane from the eastbound Interstate 74 off-ramp to southbound Dry Fork Road. These improvements are designed to enhance traffic safety and capacity at this critical interchange. The project is scheduled for completion by October 5, 2027.

As a formula grant administered through ODOT's established transportation planning processes, this funding represents the type of highway infrastructure investment that FHWA distributes to state departments of transportation for construction and improvement projects meeting federal eligibility requirements. The work falls within the program's eligible activities for safety improvements and highway construction, with ODOT serving as the responsible state entity for project administration, design approval, environmental compliance, and construction oversight in coordination with local planning authorities.
