Ohio State Route 228

Ohio State Route 228

State Route 228 (SR 228, OH 228) is a short north–south state highway in the U.S. state of Ohio. The southern terminus of the state route is at State Route 19 nearly 5.5 miles (8.9 km) north of Republic. Its northern terminus is at State Route 101 approximately 5.5 miles (8.9 km) southwest of Clyde.

This state highway was established in the mid 1920s. It serves as a connector between State Route 19 and State Route 101 east and northeast of where the two routes intersect. State Route 19 jogs west from State Route 228's southern terminus, and State Route 101 traverses in a southwest-to-northeast fashion, creating a tight angle between the two routes. State Route 778 serves a similar purpose to State Route 228 to the west and southwest of the junction of State Route 19 and State Route 101.

Famous quotes containing the words ohio, state and/or route:

    “Heaven is not one of your fertile Ohio bottoms, you may depend on it.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “To one who habitually endeavors to contemplate the true state of things, the political state can hardly be said to have any existence whatever. It is unreal, incredible, and insignificant to him, and for him to endeavor to extract the truth from such lean material is like making sugar from linen rags, when sugar-cane may be had.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
    or thought:
    no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
    terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
    of escape open: no route shut,”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
