HILLIARD, Ohio (WCMH) - As construction continues for Hilliard's newest recreation and wellness center, pedestrians can expect to see road closures and street improvements in the area.
According to the city, crews are working on three new roundabouts as part of the Cosgray Road extension, which will give access to the city's recreation center named The Well. Starting July 8, Alton Darby Creek Road is closing for three weeks for a single-lane roundabout. This is south of Davis Road and north of Heritage Lakes Drive, according to the city's website.
The new roundabout will connect to the entrance of The Well and is expected to open back up to drivers the week of July 29. The alternate route is taking Scioto Darby Creek Road, Main Street/Hilliard Rome Road to Roberts Road, according to the city.
Crews will also continue construction later this year on a multi-lane roundabout at Scioto Darby Road. Those plans also include adding crosswalks, street lighting, enhanced sidewalk and trail connections, shared-use paths and more.
The Well, located at Scioto Darby and Alton Darby roads, is expected to open in mid 2025. In June, the city gave an update on the site's construction progress. The campus will also be home to a medical health and wellness center through Ohio State’s Wexner Medical Center.
