During the time of the implementation of the new statehighway numbering system, there was discussion of creating a new network of national highways.
Ohio faced one of two choices -- 1) keep the existing numbering system, dually signing U.S. highways, and ignoring duplicate numbers -- those used by both a statehighway and a U.S. highway within the state; or 2) restructure the statehighway numbering system, removing duplicate numbers.
The state simply maintains a list of unused numbers, and when there is a need to use a new number, the state picks one from its list as a proposed route number, subject to public comment.
With the first 30 years under its belt, the OhioStateHighway Patrol was poised to pass the torch to the next generation of officers.
Highway safety took another giant leap when the 107th General Assembly approved House Bill 380, the so-called "Omnibus Bill." Among a number of safety-related measures in the bill was approval of a plan submitted by the division for a random motor vehicle inspection program.
On April 3, 1974, a series of tornadoes struck the southwest quadrant of the state, cutting a wide path of destruction in its wake.
