Deerfield Township has over 107 road miles and over 219 lane miles of township maintained roadways along with additional state and county roads. Located along the I-71 corridor, the Township has a high level of interstate access with three interchanges located at Fields Ertel, Western Row, and Kings Mills.

Deerfield Township strives to expand and enhance its transportation corridors and works closely with the Ohio Department of Transportation and the Warren County Engineer. The Township provides its residents with miles of pathways and sidewalks connecting the residential and commercial elements of the Township.

Resurfacing

Deerfield Township resurfaces between 4 – 5 miles of roadway annually.  This is part of our overall roadway maintenance program which is supplemented with additional pavement treatments such as crack sealing, surface treatments, and full depth pavement repair.  All Township maintained roads are evaluated and inspected on an annual basis.  Each road is given a Pavement Condition Index Rating (PCI) which classifies the current condition of that particular roadway.  Our roadway maintenance program is focused on repairing or repaving the roadways with the lowest PCI rating each year.

2013 Road Resurfacing Projects

Irwin-Simpson: Active

Deerfield Township is in the process of widening Irwin-Simpson Road between Nottingham way and Charleston View Drive.  The widening will consist of two driving lanes and one center turn lane along that entire section of roadway.   Likewise, we will also be installing curb & gutter, storm sewer, and sidewalks along that widened section.  Additionally, we will be widening Snider Road south of Irwin-Simpson near Cottell Park, in order to construct a southbound left turn lane into the park.  These improvements are expected to not only help with relief of traffic congestion along that section of roadway, but they will also improve vehicular and pedestrian safety along that corridor. 

Utility companies started working on their utility relocation back in October of 2012.  That utility work will continue through July of 2013.  In August of 2013, the John R. Jurgensen Company will begin the actual roadway widening work.  This work is expected to be complete by August of 2014.   During this timeframe there will periodic road closures and traffic delays.  The closures will vary throughout the different phases of the project, so please check the Township’s website and facebook page for periodic updates.  If you have questions relating to the project, please contact the Director of Public Works, Eric Reiners at 513-701-6974 or erein@deerfieldtwp.com.
