Explanation
Background -This is consent legislation with Franklin County, Ohio for three projects: Greenlawn Avenue over the Scioto River bridge reconstruction, Dublin-Granville Road at Harlem Road intersection improvement, and Innis Road over Alum Creek bridge reconstruction.

The Greenlawn Avenue over Scioto River project involves bridge redecking combined with some parking area work at the west end of the bridge and enhanced features to the bridge railing for the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department.
