Huffman Announces Funds for West Milton Traffic Safety Project

COLUMBUS—State Senator Steve Huffman (R-Tipp City) announced that the Village of West Milton is a recipient of a $665,478 Pedestrian/Roadway Departure Safety Project Grant from the Ohio Department of Transportation. 

"These funds will help the village and Miami County improve local traffic and create safer crossings for the people of West Milton," said Huffman, a Milton Union graduate. "I look forward to seeing these projects completed and put to use by the local community." 

The grant will be used to install enhanced crossings and traffic calming along State Route 571. The funding comes from the state’s Highway Safety Improvement Program, which is investing more per capita on roadway safety than any other state. 55 recipients received a total of $137.5 million in grants for traffic safety projects in 41 counties across the state.
