An Ohio law would require state transportation officials to build highway interchanges every 4.5 miles — even if they have to tear down homes and businesses to do it.

That’s crazy.

The targeted neighborhood homes primarily belong to retired persons, young families, or others on a fixed income.

Of course.

In March 2023, hours before the Ohio state governor signed the new House Bill 23, State Representative Tom Patton wrote new language in the transportation budget

And done in an underhanded way.

New law same as the old law.

Here around we have a few interchanges only 10km/6miles apart, which is already quite close. So basically an interchange every 5min on the motorway and 15/20min apart if you take parallel roads. But to mandate such a thing … wow.
