Route 56 Overhead Crossing Assured in Ohio
Ohio state highway engineer John W. Downer announced that state will construct an overhead crossing over the New York Central Railroad on Route 56 in Athens County. The project relocates about 8,000 feet of highway and shifts Margaret's Creek, beginning near White's Mill and near the Athens Gay Club range, joining the new road with the current route in front of the B R Jacoby farm. About 2,300 feet of highway will relocate east of the bridge and 700 feet west. The creek will be diverted to a new 1,000 foot channel 12 to 15 feet deep and 45 feet wide, reducing the creek length by about two-thirds.
