Street name change urged for Culbertson Road in Butler and Warren counties
County commissioners in January 1971 renamed Roosevelt Avenue to Culbertson. Middletown city later changed its portion to Culbertson Road on July 3. Residents with a 100 signature petition ask the city to revert the name to Roosevelt Avenue or Blue Ball Pike, while county officials consider Warren County’s portion. The road runs from Johns Road in Middletown to the city limits and beyond.
