Route description

SR 674 begins at a four-way intersection with US 22 and a county road. The eastern half of the intersection is in

Indiana and Ohio Central Railroad and enters an area with many commercial businesses as it approaches its northern terminus at US 33. Just before the interchange with the US 33 freeway, the route becomes a four-lane divided highway. The route ends at the aforementioned interchange with US 33, but the roadway continues north as Gender Road towards the eastern neighborhoods of Columbus.[1][2]

History

Northbound between Franklin County, and Fairfield County

SR 674 was first designated in 1937 and has generally always followed the same US 22-Canal Winchester alignment.[3][4] However, at its first designation, instead of turning fully into Franklin County at Lithopolis Road as it does today, it continued north into downtown Canal Winchester ending at Waterloo Street (then SR 31, became US 33 one year later[5]). When US 33 was moved onto a bypass north of Canal Winchester by 1953, SR 674 was extended north along West Waterloo Street to end at an intersection with the new bypass.[6][7] When US 33 was converted to a freeway in the area in the 1960s, SR 674 was extended slightly to the west to end at a new interchange with US 33.[8] Between 1992 and 1995, the route was routed out of the center of Canal Winchester on the alignment it runs today.[9][10]
