71 south is closed just south of the Norwood Lateral due to a tree down and a crash. Check https://t.co/d4Hx8c9IGW for updates. This one will be here for a while.

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

Heads up for central Ohio drivers!

[ODOT Columbus @ODOT_Columbus]

COLUMBUS: I-71 in both directions between I-70 and I-270 on the south side is CLOSED due to down power lines. Use an alternate route and follow https://t.co/16XJ7HIrR1 for updates.

As the day (and the rain) continues, we are closing more locations due to high water, trees down, etc. Remember to check OHGO for road closures.

Every intersection, crosswalk, and bike lane works better when we look out for each other. Read the road, there’s space for all of us.

[ODOT_SouthOhio @ODOT_SouthOhio]

On July 28, a driver sideswiped our truck in Brown County while crews cleared a downed tree on SR 286. Thankfully, no one was hurt.

Move over, slow down, and pay attention for vehicles with flashing lights.

Happy National Lighthouse Day!

💡 Ohio is home to many incredible lighthouses, 13 of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. https://t.co/gwjRIySNZi

Read the Road: There's Space for all of us.

Come see us at the Ohio State Fair until August 9th! Our booth is located in the Bricker Building. Stop by to pick up a map, check out our America 250 Plow, talk to our ODOT representatives, and check out some cool historic pictures and signs! #WorkerWednesday

[ODOT_SEOhio @ODOT_SEOhio]

This morning, a member of the public hit our truck on SR 340 in Noble County. That driver was cited for assured clear distance ahead and no operators license. Please do better. We're just trying to do our jobs!

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

@jmdicki Hi Jakob, what is your concern?

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

#ProfessionalEngineersDay is a special occasion dedicated to celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of licensed professional engineers (PEs). We're grateful for so many talented PEs at ODOT who keep Ohio moving and safe.

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

@lfranzman @USDOTRapid @USDOT @DHSgov @FoxNews @ODOT_Dayton We aren’t an enforcement agency nor do we issue any form of licensing. Our friends at Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio are responsible for oversight and enforcement for commercial hauling at the state level.

[ODOT Cincinnati @ODOT_Cincinnati]

Huge shout out to the Southern Ohio Bikers Adopt-A-Highway group for their amazing work cleaning up trash along I-74 in Hamilton County. They recently picked up 18 bags of litter! Volunteering really makes a difference! #adoptahighway

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

@_mahpiohanzia @ODOT_Cincinnati ODOT does perform litter cleanup, frequently. There’s just so much litter that we also need help from volunteers and incarcerated individuals. One of the best ways citizens can help is to simply not litter and secure your load. Thanks👍

[ODOT Toledo @ODOT_Toledo]

Performing road work at night may be more convenient for motorists, but more challenging for us. Incorporating the right balance of lighting to both illuminate the work area and provide visibility of the crew is crucial. Remember: Work zones occur at all hours. #MoveOverMonday

[Ohio Dept of Transportation @ODOT_Statewide]

Thanks to inventor Garrett Morgan, drivers around the nation are safer. Do your part by stopping at red lights. Running a red light is a major cause of crashes in urban areas. These crashes injure thousands of people and kill hundreds every year across the country. #StoponRedWeek

[ODOT Cleveland @ODOT_Cleveland]

The Cuyahoga County Safety Corridor is relocating to a 14-mile stretch on I-480. While we encourage all drivers on all roadways to drive safely, but this new corridor on I-480 will bring increased awareness to a troublesome location.

Whether behind the wheel, on 2 wheels, or on foot, roadway safety is a shared responsibility— watching for signs, signals, & other people. There’s space for all of us to travel safely for recreation, community, or necessity. We're teaming up w/ @ODOT_Statewide to raise awareness.
