ICYMI: Anderson Township, Ohio - Government has started construction on the Newtown-Clough intersection area improvements. Traffic will be maintained throughout the project, but single lane closures on Clough will occur from 8AM-4PM, beginning Monday, June 8th.

Newtown-Clough Intersection Area Improvements Begin

Construction has begun on a project to add left-turn lanes on Clough Pike to Newtown Road and to the Alcove of Turpin Hills apartments. The project will also complete the sidewalk connection on Clough Pike from Newtown Road to Copperleaf (and Turpin Hills).

The improvements are made possible by an ODOT grant and are based on the townshipโ€™s 2021 Clough Pike Transportation Study. The new turn lanes will ease traffic backups, and the sidewalk will improve pedestrian safety by finishing the Clough sidewalks that link the Turpin Hills area to the Clough Pike Historical Business District.

Traffic will be maintained on Clough Pike during construction. However, beginning Monday, June 8, single lane closures on Clough Pike will be in place between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to allow for the temporary widening of the roadway. Delays are possible and motorists are urged to use caution in the construction zone.

The project is projected to be completed late this fall.
