Southern Terminus

The southern terminus of I-680 is at I-76 (Exit 234), the Ohio Turnpike, near North Lima at a partial interchange. Here is the sign gantry present at the last exit for I-680 South, OH 164. After OH 164, I-680 South defaults into I-76 East 2.5 miles ahead. There is no exit along I-76 in the 7 miles between I-680 and the Pennsylvania State Line, so traffic will not have an opporunity to exit again until the first exit along the Pennsylvania Turnpike, 10 miles into the Keystone State.
