Safety at the US 23 & SR 199 interchange at N. Warpole Street is important to our community. We appreciate residents who have raised concerns. After reviewing crash data, ODOT determined that converting the ramps to an all-way stop is an appropriate safety improvement.

Beginning Monday, March 9, 2026, the interchange ramps will convert to an all-way stop to help reduce crashes caused by failure to stop or yield.

This project will be fully funded and completed by ODOT District 1.

Please use caution and watch for new signage. 🛑
