State Route 91, Darrow Road Reconstruction Project

Karvo is currently working south of SR 59 with installing sidewalks. Thursday June 25th Karvo will be milling the asphalt, and this will be followed up with pavement repairs and 4 ft asphalt berm slots being installed next week.  A new curb with a wider radius for truck turning movements in front of CVS should be placed Friday.  Handicap ramp work will take place at Arndale, Hibbard, and Fishcreek. Signal work is ongoing at Beech, Hibbard Dr., Norton, and Fishcreek.  Access to the Bike Trail off Fishcreek Road has started with steps being installed, but they need railings, and the surrounding area needs seeding and mulching before available to use.

The City of Stow has awarded contracts for two significant ODOT Local Public Agency (LPA) projects as part of CROSSROADS 91/59, a major initiative to improve local roadways.

The State Route 59, Kent Road Traffic Signal Project, bid on February 20, was awarded to Perram Electric, Inc. for $2.2 million. Underground work is expected to begin in late April or early May, but signal pole delivery delays may push some work into winter. The project is scheduled for completion by fall 2026.

The State Route 91, Darrow Road Reconstruction Project, bid on February 27, was awarded to Karvo Companies, Inc. for nearly $12.9 million. Construction is set to begin in late April, starting just north of the Post Office and progressing toward Norton Road. The final segment will be south of SR 59 to the Munroe Falls Corporation line. This work is scheduled to coincide with the SR 91 Bridge deck replacement over the Cuyahoga River in Munroe Falls. ODOT will be closing SR 91 south of SR 59 to through traffic for approximately 45 days. The project is expected to be completed by fall 2026.

Residents should anticipate traffic impacts and plan accordingly as these improvements get underway.
