About OH 562


OH 562, also known as the Norwood Lateral, is a short freeway through parts of Cincinnati and Norwood that connects I-75's Exit 7 with I-71's Exit 7. The westernmost segment was completed in the late 1950s, while the easternmost segment was finished in the early 1970s. However, on the whole, the freeway maintains a somewhat primative design scheme, including a narrow median, short ramps, and some sharp curves.
