Re: 1-270 Cable Barrier Installation by the Ohio Department of Transportation
Resolution No. 05-04
Summary:
The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) has identified the need for the installation of
tensioned cable guardrail (cable barrier) in the median on portions of 1-270. The project limits on
1-270 extend north from 0.15 miles north of Trabue Road to the concrete median barrier, which begins
near the SR 161 eastbound ramp (approximately 7 miles). Several crossover accidents have occurred
over the entire length of the project on 1-270 and ODOT is trying to be proactive in preventing future
crossover accidents, thus improving motorist safety. ODOT has requested cooperation from the City
of Dublin to advance the completion ofthis project in 2004.
The proposed tensioned cable guardrail consists of three strands of tension cable installed in socketed
posts (see attached photographs). The proposed tensioned cable guardrail will be located on one side
of the 32-foot grass median (see attached photographs), approximately two-foot from the edge of the
14- foot paved shoulder. The proposed location within the median is as follows: on the northbound
side of 1-270 from 1 mile south of Roberts Road to the first railroad overpass, then shifts to the
southbound side of 1-270 to Hayden Run Road, and then shifts back to the northbound side from
Hayden Run Road to SR 161. Thus, the portion located within the City of Dublin will all be along the
northbound side ofI-270. All existing crossovers located within the median shall be maintained.
All costs associated with this ODOT led highway improvement project will be paid for one hundred
percent (100%) by ODOT. This includes maintenance responsibilities. Any features requested by the
City, which are necessary for the improvements, as determined by the State and Federal Highway
Administration, will be paid for one hundred percent (100%) by the City of Dublin. Staff is not
anticipating the City will request any added features.
Recommendation:
Staff recognizes that while the tensioned cable guardrail does not especially enhance the aesthetics of
1-270, it does provide an added measure of safety to vehicular traffic traveling on 1-270. Staff
recommends Council's approval of Resolution 00-03 authorizing the City Manager to enter into an
agreement with the Ohio Department of Transportation for the installation of a cable barrier in the
median on portions ofI-270 located within the City of Dublin.
