The Ohio Department of
Transportation may experience costs of $500 or more to install memorial plaques
or signs along I-70 and I-71.
Currently, it costs approximately $500 to manufacture, install, and
maintain a single set of memorial plaques or signs at one location. Due to the length of I-70 and I-71, it is
unknown how many plaques or signs the Department may choose to install.
When a bridge or highway is
designated as a memorial, the Department’s policy[1]
is to first install a memorial plaque in a rest area, scenic overlook,
recreational area, or other appropriate location. If installation of a plaque is not practical, a sign is installed
along the highway instead. At one
location two plaques or two signs are usually installed, one in each
direction. ODOT installs plaques and
signs in areas outside municipal boundaries, but within township boundaries.
Various municipalities with
portions of I-70 and I-71 running through their boundaries may experience
similar costs for installing and maintaining plaques or signs. Any costs incurred by municipalities are
considered permissive.
