Regional Planning commits $50,000 for traffic study on SR 103
A much-needed study of Bluffton’s busy State Route 103 corridor between Interstate 75 and County Line Road is in motion.
Monday evening Bluffton council is prepared to approve preliminary legislation to authorize the study.
The Transportation Coordinating Committee (TCC) of the Lima-Allen County Regional Planning Commission has approved $50,000 for the study. No Bluffton funds will be used unless the study exceeds $50,000. At that point, the village contributes to the project.
The need for this study comes as State Route 103 continues to expand with businesses and traffic and the two-lane road becomes a serious traffic problem.
Other items on Monday’s council agenda are in the attachment at the bottom of this story.
