Cleveland - Columbus - Dayton - Cincinnati High-Speed Intercity Passenger Rail Program Cleveland - Columbus - Dayton - Cincinnati Lake Erie Awardees: Ohio Department of Transportation Total Approximate Funding (entire corridor): $400,000,000 4 Benefiting States: 2 3 Ohio 1 Miles of Track: New - 250 miles Legend Corridor Development Program This new corridor connects four major metropolitan areas in Ohio: Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati. This signifi­ cant route, named the “3C Corridor,” has a length of 250 miles and will serve communities near Lake Erie, in Central Ohio, and the Tri-State region around Cincinnati. These metropolitan areas are among the largest in the United States that are currently not served by passenger rail. The corridor will connect 12 economically-distressed counties, and the new service will create thousands of direct and indirect jobs throughout the state. The project will also bring livability benefits to the region, as many new stations will be constructed or restored in historic downtowns where they will connect to transit and other modes of transportation. Nearly 40 colleges and universities lie in close proximity to the route, as do the headquarters of 22 Fortune 500 companies. The 3C Corridor is expected to be the first phase of a long-term vision for an extensive network of passenger rail corridors connecting the cities of Ohio and neighboring states. Subsequent phases are expected to increase speeds, cut trip times and boost available round trips. 1 2 Summary of Corridor Investments Using funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), this new service is expected to offer three daily round trips at speeds up to 79 mph, serving a population of more than 6.8 million people (nearly 60 percent of Ohio’s popula­ tion).3 This investment will fund a number of projects across the state, including track upgrades, grade crossings, new stations, and maintenance4 facilities. This project will also include planning for necessary equipment that can support future service improve­ ments. .

  • The City of Milwaukee's Uncommon Revenue Structure and How It Compares to Peer Cities
    About the Public Policy Forum The Milwaukee-based Public Policy Forum, established in 1913 as a local government watchdog, is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the effectiveness of government and the development of Southeastern Wisconsin through objective research of regional public policy issues. Preface and Acknowledgments This report was undertaken to provide citizens and policymakers in the Milwaukee region and across the state with insights into the City of Milwaukee's revenue structure and how Milwaukee's framework for financing its city government compares with other similarly-sized cities across the United States. We hope that policymakers and community leaders will use the report’s findings to inform discussions during upcoming policy debates and budget deliberations at both the City and State level. Report authors would like to thank Milwaukee fiscal officials and staff, as well as budget officials from Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Cleveland, and Kansas City, for their assistance in providing financial information and for patiently answering our questions. We also would like to thank the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and its staff for the use of their database and for similarly answering our questions. In addition, we wish to acknowledge and thank the Greater Milwaukee Committee, which commissioned and helped fund this research as part of its MKE United initiative. We also thank the Northwestern Mutual Foundation and the Rockwell Automation Charitable Corporation for their long- standing support of our local government finance research. On the Money? T he City of Milwaukee's U n c o m m o n Revenue Structure and How it Compares to Peer Cities July 2017 Report Authors: Rob Henken, President Douglass Day, Researcher Susan Moeser, Researcher Ben Juarez, Researcher introduction In September 2016, the Public Policy Forum released Making Ends Meet,1 a comprehensive analysis of the City of Milwaukee's fiscal condition.

  • The Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad (1851)
    Roots of the New York Central Railroad in Columbus, Ohio By Rowlee Steiner* 1952 THE CLEVELAND COLUMBUS & CINCINNATI RAILROAD (1851) Among the charters re-activated by the state in the late 1840's was the one which had been granted in 1836 to the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad. This company then started construction of a railroad from Cleveland thru Galion and Delaware to Columbus. The road entered Columbus from the north, running east of and parallel to Fourth Street, then swinging southwestward to enter the passenger depot of the road from Xenia. Regular traffic over this second road to enter Columbus was opened in April, 1851, more than a year after the Xenia road operated its first train. However, a grand excursion train passed over the road from Columbus to Cleveland on February 21, 1851, carrying members of the state legislature, city authorities of Columbus, and many other citizens, returning them to Columbus after a day’s visit in Cleveland. Although Cincinnati was included in the company name, the road was built originally between Cleveland and Columbus. The first actual move toward Cincinnati came in 1862. The Springfield Mt. Vernon & Pittsburgh Railroad had been nearly completed from Springfield thru Marysville to Delaware when the compony became insolvent, and in the litigation which followed, the property was conveyed to the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad. In 1868, the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad consolidated with the Bellefontaine Railroad and the name of the consolidated properties became the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati & Indianapolis Railroad. The consolidation gave the company a railroad consisting of lines between Cleveland and Columbus, Galion and Indianapolis, and Delaware and Springfield.

Abstracts Eighty-five stream sites in and near the six-county Greater Pittsburgh Region were sampled in mid-June 1971 and again in mid-October 1972. Concentrations of inorganic nitrogen, organic carbon, or phosphorus were high enough to indicate potential problems at about a quarter of the sampling sites. Temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH values indicated a generally favorable capacity for recovery from degradation, although a number of streams east of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers ar~ marginal or lacking. Regionally, sulfate is the dominant ion and was observed in concentrations of 40 milligrams per litre· or more at 90 percent of the sites. Bicarbonate exceeded 100 milligrams per litre at 22 sites. A moderate to high degree of mineralization is indicated by conductance readings of more than 500 micromhos per centimetre at half of the sampling sites.
