State Route 315 or SR-315 is a state route and partial freeway in the U.S. state of Ohio. The road forms the northern highway of the Columbus metropolitan area and runs from the center of that city to the town of Delaware. The route is 36 kilometers long.
Travel directions
The highway begins southwest of downtown, where Interstate 71 exits east at Interstate 70 via a TOTSO, while SR-315 continues straight through 2×3 lanes and is sunken. This section is called the Innerbelt. One then crosses Interstate 670, an east-west connection in the city. The highway then also has 2×3 lanes and runs parallel to the Olentangy River to the north. The highway is thereafter called the Olentangy Freeway. The road opens up some suburbs north of Columbus and crosses the Interstate 270. ring road at Worthington. After that, the highway section stops and the road continues north as a normal main road. This is a secondary route due to its proximity to the more important US 23 which runs less than a mile away. Just south of the city of Delaware, SR-315 merges with US 23.
History
Plans for a freeway along the Olentangy River were made as early as the 1930s. The section immediately north of I-70 is the oldest and probably opened to traffic in the early 1950s. In 1958, the interchange with US 33 opened to traffic, with traffic on SR-315 branching to US 33 heading east. At the time, this was part of I-71. It was not until later, presumably in or after the latter half of the 1960s, that SR-315 was constructed further north along the Olentangy River. In the late 1960s, SR-315 opened to Kinnear Road and on August 7, 1972, a 1.5-mile section opened to Ackerman Road. In 1975 another extension opened north and by 1980 SR-315 was ready to I-270 in north Columbus.
A major adjustment involved the reconstruction of the interchange with I-670. I-670 runs east-west and intersects SR-315 west of downtown Columbus. Around 2002, the node was significantly modified. This project was fully completed in 2003. The sharp bend from SR-315 to US 33 is now an exit.
Traffic intensities
The highway handles quite a bit of traffic, with up to 111,000 vehicles in 2×3 lanes. Traffic usually flows enough not to cause serious congestion.
