What do you think? ODOT seeks public input on $3.4 million Wick Avenue Bridge project
The Ohio Department of Transportation has released the proposed rehabilitation project for a bridge on Wick Avenue over U.S. 422 in Youngstown.
The $3.4 million-project is an overall rehabilitation of the bridge’s deck, sidewalk, roadway approach slabs, adjacent intersection pavement, curb ramps and lighting.
Construction will start in the summer of 2026 and last approximately a year.
While the project is under development, ODOT is seeking any comments from the public about the proposed plan.
Visit the ODOT Wick Avenue Bridge Replacement page online to learn more and leave comments about the project.
ODOT is looking for input on how the construction would impact “on residents, businesses, the local economy, historic or cultural resources,” but will answer all comments from residents they receive.
Individuals without access to a computer can request hard copies of the project materials by contacting Sean Carpenter.
Any questions or concerns can also be directed to Carpenter by calling (330) 786-2274 or emailing Sean.Carpenter@dot.ohio.gov.
Construction impact
Detours will be posted before construction begins, and there will be a 60-day closure on the U.S. 422/Wick Avenue interchange ramps and Wick Avenue at the bridge site.
Pedestrians accessing Wick Avenue north and south of US 422 will be directed to use West Scott Street, Elm Street and the Westbound Service Road.
