Old Beach Road
Bridge
Established as a gateway to the
west by the Ohio Legislature in 1803, Franklin County is an important
crossroads and transportation center for our ever evolving state and nation. To
meet the social and economic challenges of our mobile society, Franklin
County is home to some of the most innovative civil engineering projects, such
as the Beach Road Bridges spanning the Big Darby Creek, built in 1888 and 2001.

The grand history of providing for
the safe and efficient movement of people, goods and services has taken us from
the mud and rut filled streets of the past to today's modern infrastructure of
asphalt, concrete and steel. Please buckle-up, and enjoy your trip back to the
beginnings of our transportation heritage via our Franklin County Highway
Chronicle and Bridge Builders Advocate web pages.
