CUYAHOGA COUNTY, OH – Cuyahoga County is working to make roads smoother and safer for residents and repairs more affordable for municipalities. Through the County Road 50/50 Funding Program, more than $5.2 million will support roadway improvements in 22 communities, pending Cuyahoga County Council approval. The projects totaling nearly $17.7 million will enhance safety, improve communities, and strengthen local infrastructure.

 

“Our roads keep our communities connected, helping residents reach jobs, schools, and essential services,” said Cuyahoga County Executive Chris Ronayne. “We are committed to supporting our municipalities in providing safer, more reliable roadways because well-maintained infrastructure is essential to daily life and to the overall quality of life in Cuyahoga County.”

 

The program helps municipalities cover the costs for infrastructure projects by offering a 50/50% cost split between the County and the municipality, up to a maximum County match of $250,000. The program accepts project proposals every two years, and this selection covers projects planned for construction in 2027-2028.

 

“Our goal is to work alongside municipalities to identify projects that will have the greatest impact on public safety, traffic flow, and mobility,” said Cuyahoga County Director of Public Works Michael Dever. “In doing so, we are able to move projects forward that are most beneficial to residents and visitors.”
