If
ODOT chooses not to erect markers, the municipality of Milford, the only
municipality along I‑275 in Clermont County, may incur minimal costs if
it chooses to install markers on the designated portions of I-275 within municipal boundaries. If Milford were to install the markers, it
might also incur minimal upkeep and repair costs.

The Ohio Department of
Transportation (ODOT) may incur minimal costs to install suitable plaques or
signs along the designated portion of I-275.
When a highway or bridge is designated as a memorial, the Department's
policy is to first install a memorial plaque in a rest area, scenic overlook,
recreational area, or other appropriate location.[1] If this is not practical, a marker is
installed along the highway or near the bridge instead. Two plaques or two markers are usually
installed, one in either direction at each location. Current costs to manufacture, install, and maintain a single set
of memorial plaques or markers at one location are estimated to be a few
hundred dollars, depending on the size of the marker(s), equipment and
materials needed to install them, and the frequency of maintenance.
More often than not, ODOT
erects markers for memorial highways named through legislation. However, if ODOT chooses not to, the
municipality of Milford, the only municipality along I-275 in Clermont County,
may install such markers along the designated portion of I-275 within municipal
boundaries and would incur the expense for doing so.
