Rich / Davis / Primrose Intersection Safety Improvements Update
Deerfield Township has been working with the Warren County Engineer’s Office for the past two years on the design of a project that would realign Primrose Drive with Rich Road at the Davis Road intersection. These improvements are necessary to improve safety for drivers in the area. The realignment greatly increases visibility and reduces conflict points that can lead to injury-related crashes.
Township Trustees and Administration are moving forward with this safety improvement plan in order to eliminate injury and non-injury crashes that have been known to occur at this intersection. In the past five years alone there have been six injury-related crashes and three non-injury crashes at the intersection of Primrose Drive and Rich Road.
The majority of the land needed to straighten the roads and realign them into a conventional intersection is already owned by the township. However, in order to move forward with this safety improvement project, the township did need to acquire several small easements from two private property owners. To date, township officials have been able to come to agreement with one of these private property owners, located at 9361 Davis Road, who agreed to sell the necessary easements to the Township.
