Hamilton Mason Road Widening Project Aims to Boost Safety

Cincinnati, OH, August 3, 2026 —

A significant road improvement project is underway on Hamilton Mason Road, a collaborative effort between West Chester Township, Liberty Township, and the Butler County Engineers Office. The project focuses on a specific stretch of the road, extending from Princeton Glendale Road to Quail Run Drive.

The primary objective of this initiative is to enhance traffic safety. Key features of the widening project include the expansion of existing lanes, the addition of shoulders, and the construction of a new left-turn lane. This dedicated turn lane is intended for eastbound traffic intending to turn onto Van Gorden Road, a common traffic flow point.

Furthermore, the project will involve adjustments to the roadway’s alignment in select areas. These modifications are designed to improve sight distance for drivers, a critical factor in preventing accidents, especially at intersections or curves.

Funding for the majority of this safety-focused project is being provided by the Ohio Department of Transportation. West Chester and Liberty townships are contributing financially to cover the costs associated with the new turn lane and other construction expenses.

Details regarding the specific start date, projected completion timeline, and the total cost of the project were not immediately available. The contractor’s name was also not provided.
