The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, is currently engaged in a project identified as Poindexter Village Roadways Phase 2 project. This project is to construct Roadway improvements to support the new development, and sidewalks will be added where needed. Hawthorne Avenue, Phale D Hale Drive, and Mt Vernon Avenue improvements will occur between Ohio Avenue and Champion Avenue. Ohio Avenue and Champion Avenue improvements will occur between Long Street and Mt. Vernon Avenue.
