Roadway in front of Miami Valley Gaming, Traders World to be widened to four lanes

Apr. 22—The widening of Ohio 63 from the city of Monroe near Miami Valley Gaming to Ohio 741 in Warren County will begin this week and will mean lane restrictions during night time hours.

The widening project is expected to take two years to complete.

On Thursday and Friday, lane restrictions will be in effect on Ohio 63 and Ohio 741 as crews shift traffic onto temporary and existing pavement that will be used during the first phase of construction. Crews will be working from 7 p.m. each night to 6 a.m. the following day, and traffic will be maintained by flaggers throughout the night.

Construction also includes realigning the route and improving intersections within the project area.

Milcon Concrete was awarded a contract for approximately $19.8 million to complete the project, and the majority of construction should be completed by December 2025, with all work completed in summer 2026.
