Mission

The Eastern Corridor Major Investment Study identifies long-term transportation improvements needed in the eastern sector of the Cincinnati metropolitan area that will provide the best balance of efficiency, effectiveness, cost, social and economic benefit, and compatibility with environmental and quality-of-life goals.

The Purpose

Covering nearly 200 square miles in parts of Hamilton and Clermont Counties in Ohio and parts of Campbell County in Kentucky, the study area extends east from the Cincinnati Business District to Milford, Batavia and Amelia and into Northern Kentucky along I-275 and I-471.

Many of the roads in the Eastern Corridor are congested today. Problems will intensify as development continues. In the year 2020, population is expected to reach 196,000 compared to 161,000 in 1990, and employment is expected to total 87,000, compared to 66,000 in 1990. Increases in population and employment have already congested Corridor roadways. Without improvements to the transportation system, continued growth will increase delays, hinder economic vitality and degrade the environment. To prevent these occurrences, the Task Force has adopted four goals to guide its planning efforts.
