Ohio State Route 25
State Route 25 (SR 25, OH 25) is a largely north–south highway in northwestern Ohio. Its termini are on Interstate 75 near Cygnet (south) and at Interstate 280 in Toledo (north).
Between Perrysburg and Cygnet it is the relic of an old U.S. Route 25 that passes through Bowling Green as largely a divided surface highway. From Perrysburg it crosses the Maumee-Perrysburg Bridge joint with U.S. Route 20 and then follows the Anthony Wayne Trail from Maumee into downtown Toledo. The Maumee portioni is joint with U.S. Route 24. (U.S. Route 24 in greater Toledo takes, as far south as Perrysburg, the path of what used to be U.S. Route 25, more distant from the newer I-75, having had its route switched with that of old U.S. Route 25). North of this former terminus, State Route 25 runs through downtown Toledo on Erie Street (northbound) and Michigan Street (southbound) before becoming the Greenbelt Parkway, which is cut off at Interstate 280, terminating the route.

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)
“He was discontented and wasted his life into the bargain; and yet he rated it as a gain in coming to America, that here you could get tea, and coffee, and meat every day. But the only true America is that country where you are at liberty to pursue such a mode of life as may enable you to do without these, and where the state does not endeavor to compel you to sustain slavery and war and other superfluous expenses which directly or indirectly result from the use of such things.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
