SR 570 was a state-maintained section of Neowash Road in southern
Lucas County. The four-mile-long (6.4 km) route connected
SR 295 in
Providence Township and
US 24 southwest of
Waterville. The route existed from 1937 until 1961.[4][5] Today, Neowash Road is signed as Lucas County Road 143.[6]
SR 571 was a former state route in
Bridgewater Township,
Williams County connecting
US 20 and the
Michigan state line. The four-mile-long (6.4 km) route existed from 1937 until 1955.[2][4] The road itself is still a state highway as
SR 576 was signed on the entire route after being extended from
Montpelier.[7]
SR 572 was a state route in
Lucas County. When it was created in 1937, the route extended from
SR 570 near
Bailey and ended at
US 20 (Central Avenue) near
Silica.[4] SR 572 used Hertzfeld Road, heading north to Neapolis-Waterville Road, jogging east to join Finzel Road. SR 572 then traveled north along Finzel Road to Weckerly Road, then north on Weckerly to Maumee-Western Road (
US 20A). After jogging east, it used Crissey Road north to its northern terminus at US 20. By 1939, the route was slightly extended at both ends: It was extended on the southern end through Bailey to end at
US 24 and was extended to
SR 568 (Sylvania-Metamora Road) at its northern end by way of Herr Road, Sylvania Avenue and Mitchaw Road. [8] The route would follow this route until it was deleted in 1945.[9]
SR 573 was the designation for Mekus Road in northeastern
Defiance County from 1939 until 1945.[8][9] Throughout its history, the entire four-mile-long (6.4 km) route was gravel-paved.[8][9] The route connected
SR 66 with
SR 580 north of
Defiance. Today, all of Mekus Road is a part of Defiance County Road 81.[10]
SR 577 was the designation for a state route in the
Toledo area. The route was first created in 1939, started in downtown Toledo, and traveled northeast along the banks of the
Maumee River on Summit Street before turning north at the edge of the
Maumee Bay. The route ended at the
Michigan state line in
Washington Township.[8][11] In 1942, the route was extended south to
Maumee along Summit Street, Broadway and River Road, roads that followed the course of the Maumee River, but not directly next to the river (
US 24 followed the road next to the river).[12] By 1946, the section of SR 577 north of downtown Toledo was deleted from the state highway system but was extended further south to
SR 64 in
Waterville.[13] The route last appeared on official Ohio highway maps in 1951.[14]
SR 578 was a short 0.19-mile-long (310 m) state highway connecting
SR 65 in
Grand Rapids to
US 24 in
Providence Township via a bridge over the
Maumee River.[15][16] When the route was created in 1937, SR 578 started at
SR 33 (now
SR 108) south of
Napoleon and traveled east through
Malinta before turning north to end at US 24 in Grand Rapids.[4] At the time, US 24 crossed to the north side of the Maumee River at the Grand Rapids bridge. By 1942, SR 578 was extended across the river when US 24 was routed on the north side of the river for its entire length.[12] However, by 1945, the entire route only consisted of the bridge and its approaches, the alignment it would use for nearly the next seven decades.[9][17] In 2012, as a part of the construction of the US 24 freeway in the area,
SR 295 was extended from its old southern terminus along the former US 24 to Grand Rapids, taking over all of SR 578.[18] The SR 578 designation was deleted as a result.
SR 581 was a 15-mile-long (24 km) state highway in the eastern portion of
Lucas County. The route began at the intersection of Summit Street (
SR 577) and Ash Street in
Toledo and immediately crossed the
Maumee River on the
Ash-Consaul Bridge.[20] After crossing the bridge, the route headed east along Consaul Street which turned into Corduroy Road upon leaving Toledo city limits (now a part of the city of
Oregon).[21] Near the communities of
Reno Beach and
Lakeland, SR 581 made a right turn onto Howard Road to end at
SR 2 near
Bono.[22] The route existed from 1937 until 1939.[4][8]
SR 584 was a short state route in southern
Ottawa County. Starting at
SR 19 in
Salem Township, south of
Oak Harbor and the
Portage River, the route traveled east along West Oak Harbor-Southeast Road for about eight miles (13 km) before ending at
SR 53 in
Bay Township at the
Sandusky Bay. The route existed from 1937 until 1957.[4][7] The former route is now a part of Ottawa County Road 17.[23]
SR 585 was the designation for the road that currently carries
US 20 from the community of
Kipton to east of
Oberlin.[4][17] SR 585 started at the intersection of US 20 and what was then the northern terminus of
SR 511; it traveled west-northwest until it intersected US 20 again while it was
concurrent with
SR 10. Created in 1937, it existed for about two years until it was fully replaced by US 20; SR 10 was then extended over the former routing of US 20 through Kipton and Oberlin.[4][8][24]
SR 591 was a state highway in southwestern
Seneca County. The route existed from 1937 until 1955 and traveled from
Springville at
US 23, passed through
New Riegel, and ended west of
Tiffin at
US 224.[2][4] Today, all of the former route retains its old number as Seneca County Road 591.[25]
SR 592 was a state route in western
Seneca County near
Fostoria. The route started at
SR 12 and
SR 113 in
Jackson Township and traveled due east for about ten miles (16 km) where it ended at
SR 53 in
Jackson Township. SR 592 served the community of
Cromers.[4] The route existed from 1937 until 1955.[2][4] All of the former route and portions of the east-west road west of SR 12 / SR 113 is known as Seneca County Road 592.[25]
SR 596 was a state route that ran around the northeastern shore of
Buckeye Lake entirely in
Licking County. The route it used throughout its history from 1937 until 1958 was from
SR 157 southeast of
Hebron to
SR 13 near
Edgewater Beach.[4][26] When the route was deleted in 1958, around the time part of the route was cut off by the construction of
Interstate 70, the jurisdiction of the route was transferred to the county and is today known as Licking County Road 596.[27]
SR 607 was a state route in the
Proctorville area from 1986 until 2007.[29][30] The route's southern terminus had always been at the
West Virginia state line on the
East Huntington Bridge. SR 607 crossed over
SR 7 and then looped 180 degrees to end at a
T-intersection with SR 7. Around 2005, a road was built stretching north from the northern end of the bridge was built. This new road, which ended 0.55 miles (0.89 km) away from a newly created intersection with SR 607 at Irene Road was designated SR 607-T.[31] In 2007, both sections of SR 607 were deleted and was replaced by an extension of
SR 775 except for the ramp from the north-south road to SR 7, the ramp became a part of SR 7 when it was routed on a bypass of Proctorville.[30]
SR 612 was the designation for a state-maintained section of West 130th Street in
Cuyahoga County. The route started at
SR 82 (Royalton Road) on the border of
Strongsville and
North Royalton and traveled due north. SR 612 traveled along the borders of Strongsville, North Royalton,
Middleburg Heights,
Parma,
Parma Heights, and
Brook Park. SR 612 reached
SR 17 (Brookpark Road) at the city limits of
Cleveland. This intersection served as the northern terminus of SR 612 from 1937 until 1939.[4][8] After 1940, SR 612 continued north into Cleveland for about three miles (4.8 km) to
SR 10 (Lorain Avenue).[24] The route was deleted from the state highway system between 1951 and 1953.[14][32]
SR 613 was a state route in southeastern
Cuyahoga County. The route carried Richmond Road from Broadway Road (at the time also
SR 14) to Aurora Road (
SR 43) in
Glenwillow and
Solon. SR 613 existed from 1937 until 1945 when it was replaced by
SR 175 though today, the road is not state-maintained at all.[4][9][13][17]
SR 622 was a state route entirely in
Poland Township that existed from 1937 until 1941.[4][11] The route started at
SR 18 (modern-day
SR 289) near the city limits of
Struthers and traveled east along New Castle Road (currently Mahoning County Road 106[33]) before ending at the
Pennsylvania state line, though the road continues in Pennsylvania as Skyhill Road.[11][34]
SR 623 was a state route on the
Stark–
Mahoning County county line in existence from 1938 until 1941.[1][11] The route also formed the border between the city of
Alliance and
Smith Township. The short route, also called Mahoning Avenue, connected
US 62 (East State Street) with East Patterson Street, which was signed as
SR 173 while SR 623 existed.[11]
SR 627 was a north-south state route in
Stark County. The southern terminus of SR 627 was located in the community of
Deerfield (within
Deerfield Township) at
SR 14, just north of its intersection with
US 224. The route traveled due north through several small communities in eastern Portage County. From 1937 until 1941, SR 627 traveled north through the village of
Windham before ending at
SR 82 in the community of
Mahoning.[4][11] After 1942, due to the opening of the
Ravenna Arsenal, the section of SR 627 north of
SR 5 in
Paris was removed from the state highway system.[12] The route would remain in existence until after 1969 when it was replaced in its entirety by
SR 225.[35][36]
SR 628 was a short east-west state route connecting
SR 8 and
SR 43 on East Maple Street in
North Canton. From 1937 until 1941, SR 628 extended east from SR 43 along Easton Road (current Stark County Road 86[37]) to end at
US 62.[4][11] For the remainder of the route's history until 1967, the route consisted of the SR 8-SR 43 segment.[12][38] By 1969, SR 628 was turned over to local control, the same time SR 8 between
Canton and
Akron was deleted from the state highway system.[35]
SR 629 was an east-west state highway in central
Mahoning County. The route started at
SR 45 in
Jackson Township and traveled east along Kirk Road. After intersecting
SR 46, Kirk Road ended at the
Austintown Township–
Youngstown border, but SR 629 continued south on Tippecanoe Road to end at
US 62. The route existed from 1937 until 1941.[4][11]
SR 631 was a state route in the vicinity of
Northfield that existed from 1937 until 1967.[4][38] When it was created in 1937, the route ran on Valley View Road from the
Cuyahoga/
Summit County line on the northern border of
Sagamore Hills and traveled southeast through Northfield and
Macedonia before ending at
SR 91 just north of
Hudson.[4] There was a slight realignment at the eastern terminus when the
Ohio Turnpike was completed in 1955; the eastern terminus was moved slightly north to avoid crossing over the Turnpike.[26] This would be the route's alignment until about a year before its deletion; SR 631 was truncated to
Northfield Center at
SR 8 in 1967.[38] Shortly after this, the entire route was deleted from the state highway system.[35]
SR 632 was the state-numbered route for Fishcreek Road in
Stow. Throughout its history from 1937 until 1966, SR 632 always started at Kent Road (
SR 5, now a part of
SR 59) and traveled northwest to
SR 91 (Darrow Road).[4][39] The road is now municipally-maintained.[40]
SR 655 was a seven-mile-long (11 km) state highway entirely in
Mead Township,
Belmont County. The L-shaped route started at
SR 147 in the community of
Key and traveled south then east to the community of
Diles Bottom on the banks of the
Ohio River at
SR 7. The route existed from 1939 until 1967 and was replaced by Belmont County Road 54.[8][38][42]
SR 663 was a short-lived state highway from
SR 13 east of
Somerset to
Crooksville at
SR 75 (now
SR 93). The route only existed in 1937 having been created on a local road from SR 13 to
Saltillo and then taking over a portion of
SR 345 to Crooksville.[4][43] In the next year, the entire route merged with
SR 669, the number the road continues to carry today.[1][17]
SR 670 was a state route connecting
SR 147 near the
Senecaville Lake to
SR 265 in
Salesville. When the route was created in 1937, the route was much straighter than the roads the route would follow later.[4][11] In 1942, SR 670 was slightly rerouted at its southern end at a point closer to
Batesville along SR 147; the route also closely followed the northern shoreline of the lake to
Kennonsburg.[12] This alignment would be SR 670's route until 1973.[44] In that year,
I-670 was designated in
Columbus and due to ODOT not repeating route numbers throughout the state, the route south of
SR 313's eastern terminus became an extension of SR 313 and the remainder of the route became
SR 761.[45]
