The first of about two dozen "superloads" rolled into central Ohio from a port on the Ohio River. The 390,000 pound piece of equipment is traveling to a plastics recycling plant in Hebron, located in Licking County.

The trucks with very large loads will be transporting material from the Ohio River up to Central Ohio.

New camera technology that automatically detects and alerts drivers to traffic slowdowns and standstills ahead will be added to some highways in Ohio.

The Ohio Department of Transportation will spend $112 million to widen State Route 161. The project will be completed in November 2024.

The Ohio Department of Transportation plans to fund 46 electric vehicle charging stations across the state, a station every 50 miles along nearly 1,900 miles of interstate.

The group Bridge Forward says now that funding concerns are a lot lighter, it's time to consider their alternative design.

Ohio and Kentucky will get the $1.635 billion in federal dollars they have been seeking for repairs to the Brent Spence Bridge.

Now that the snow has melted, ODOT crews are heading to the sides of Central Ohio roadways to pick up large amounts of litter dropped by drivers and others. Last year the agency spent $4 million picking up more than 450,000 bags of trash across the state.

The bill would cancel the gas tax increase for five years, and it comes as lawmakers will soon be asked to put up money for repairs on Cincinnati's Brent Spence Bridge.

There's a shortage of snowplow drivers going into this winter.
