Yes, that will mean orange barrels and construction projects, but also modernized toll collection services and safer roadways. On Tuesday, the Ohio Turnpike and Infrastructure Commission announced that it has approved a $233 milion budget for improvement projects in 2022. The money will be spent on toll road modernization, mainline pavement replacement, resurfacing, bridge, and other projects for this year. With the news about the upcoming projects comes a reminder from turnpike officials to slow down in work areas. There were 1,443 vehicle crashes in work zones on the Ohio Turnpike from 2016-2020, averaging 289 crashes per year over the same five-year period, according to statistics provided by the Ohio Department of Public Safety "Speeding in work zones is a primary cause of crashes," said Ferzan Ahmed, executive director of the turnpike commission in a statement. "The Highway Patrol will be conducting speed enforcement, including aerial enforcement, in work zones on the Ohio Turnpike during the construction season." Here is how the $233 million in investment money is being distributed: Four resurfacing projects, which will remove and replace asphalt, upgrade guardrails and other roadway work ($36.2 million): The right and center lanes and right shoulder from milepost 178.05 to 185.65 (Summit County) and resurfacing the ramps at Exit 187 (Portage County).
