Road Facilities Needed Survey Reveals Route 31 Heavy Truck Use
A recent survey shows Route 31 near Hocking and Athens County lines carrying heavy truck traffic bound for coal shipments. The study notes 12 to 31 percent traffic increases in sections, with max daily trucks reaching 4 805 and car traffic around 2 061 to 1 859 in various segments. Officials advocate state funding to convert rail to truck haulage and upgrade Route 31 to relieve coal movement from Nelsonville and Mine fields toward Fairfield.
