Whose Road is That?

Did you know that not all Anderson roadways are maintained by the township? While Anderson manages more than 123 miles of mainly subdivision streets (those posted for 25 mph), Hamilton County maintains 73 miles of thru township roadways, such as Clough, Salem, Eight Mile, etc.

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is responsible for state or U.S. highways in our community, such as SR 32 (Batavia Road), SR 125 (Beechmont Avenue), US 52 and Interstate 275, comprising 19.8 miles. This map helps to present a visual representation of roadway maintenance.

Each agency has its own funding programs for roadway maintenance and improvements. In 2024, less than 1% of your total property tax bill was allocated to Anderson’s Public Works Department for roadway maintenance. In addition, a portion of the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) revenue Anderson receives is allocated to roadway paving work, this year projected at just over $2.1 million. TIF revenue is derived solely from the growth in our community since 1994 and is used for public improvements within the township.
