Southern Terminus


The Southern Terminus of OH 3 is common with the Western Terminus of US 22 in downtown Cincinnati, at their junction with US 27, US 42, US 52 and US 127. Dan describes the placement of the END US 22/OH 3 shields as follows: "This is US 22 West /OH 3 South (9th St. West) at Elm St. Elm St is US 42 North. Plum St, the next light, is US 27/42/127 South/US 52 East/OH 264 West.  (OH 264 West begins there; unfortunately there is no signage.)  Central Ave., the third light, is US 27/127 North/US 52 West.  US 22 West/OH 3 South ends at Central Ave.  This is the only signage; there is none for any of the intersecting routes."

These are the first reassurance markers for US 22 and OH 3.  Note the erroneous US 3 shield; that should be an OH 3 shield.  In describing the location of these markers, Dan notes: "The Central Ave. and 5th St. intersection is just behind.  We are on NB Central Ave., which is US 22 East /US 27/127/OH 3 North/US 52 West.  US 22 East/OH 3 North begins just behind, and these are the first reassurance markers.  5th St. (where US 22 East/OH 3 North begins) is OH 264 East (coming from the US 50 freeway Eastbound).  A left turn at the light ahead is OH 264 West, which merges into the US 50 freeway westbound. This is the only US 22/OH 3 signage at the intersection where they begin; there is other signage several blocks down where it turns onto 7th St."

Here, Dan is looking north along Central Ave. at 7th St., 2 blocks north of the starting point for US 22 East/OH 3 North.  At this point, US 22 and OH 3 split from the multiplex of US 27 North, US 52 West and US 127 North.
