Increasing longevity of rural roads using soy
Winter is here in Ohio and so are the challenging weather conditions that lead to the deterioration of roads and bridges each year. Ohio’s rural roads and bridges serve as the initial link in the agricultural supply chain. Without a system of well-maintained rural roads and bridges, the soybeans and grain Ohio farmers produce will not be efficiently delivered to elevators, processing facilities, and, ultimately, to domestic and international customers. Unfortunately, rural America is an area of the country in which the condition of roads and bridges is the most severe while also being an area of the country in which available resources are the most limited. Additional investment is clearly necessary, but promoting better longevity and stewardship is also required.

The work will happen over the next five years, but no one knows just how much money is coming to Cleveland, or exactly soon. But Senator Rob Portman, one of the few Republicans who actively supported the bill, says Ohio will get $483 million to help with bridges and a whopping $9.2 billion for its roadways.
