State Route 626 (SR 626) is a north–south state highway in the northeastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. The southern terminus of SR 626 is at SR 165 approximately one and a half miles (2.4 km) southeast of the hamlet of North Lima.

A state highway, state road, or state route is usually a road that is either numbered or maintained by a sub-national state or province. A road numbered by a state or province falls below numbered national highways in the hierarchy. Roads maintained by a state or province include both nationally numbered highways and un-numbered state highways. Depending on the state, "state highway" may be used for one meaning and "state road" or "state route" for the other.

U.S. state constituent political entity of the United States

In the United States, a state is a constituent political entity, of which there are currently 50. Bound together in a political union, each state holds governmental jurisdiction over a separate and defined geographic territory and shares its sovereignty with the federal government. Due to this shared sovereignty, Americans are citizens both of the federal republic and of the state in which they reside. State citizenship and residency are flexible, and no government approval is required to move between states, except for persons restricted by certain types of court orders. Four states use the term commonwealth rather than state in their full official names.

Route description

This state highway runs exclusively within Beaver Township in southeastern Mahoning County. SR 626 is not included within the National Highway System. [2]

National Highway System (United States) highway system in the United States

The National Highway System (NHS) is a network of strategic highways within the United States, including the Interstate Highway System and other roads serving major airports, ports, rail or truck terminals, railway stations, pipeline terminals and other strategic transport facilities. Altogether, it constitutes the largest highway system in the world.

State Route 626 begins at the intersection of SR 165 and County Road 26 (East South Range Road) approximately one and a half miles (2.4 km) southeast of North Lima. Running northwesterly from that intersection, the two-lane state route passes a number of houses, with woods abutting the roadway along the way. At Miley Road, the highway turns to the north-northwest, and passes just to the west of the partial I-680 interchange off of the Ohio Turnpike (I-76). SR 626 then bends to the northwest, and comes into a T-intersection with SR 164. Here, SR 626 turns to the northeast, and runs concurrently with SR 164 for less than 0.1 miles (0.16 km) to cross the Ohio Turnpike, then resumes its solo trek to the northwest. The route passes by a couple of commercial buildings as it departs the intersection, then travels amidst a blend of wooded terrain and open fields with scattered homes along the way. SR 626 intersects County Road 30 (East Calla Road), then continues in a northwesterly fashion, crossing railroad tracks and then passing by the Kreps Road intersection. Next, the highway passes into a more heavily residential setting, and intersects a number of side streets. Finally, SR 626 passes a couple of commercial businesses as curves to the west, passes a former alignment of the route (when it ended at a five-point signalized intersection), and ends approximately two miles (3.2 km) south of Boardman where it meets SR 7 in the community of Woodworth. [3]

History

SR 626 was created in 1937 along the routing that it currently occupies between SR 165 and SR 7. Except for a realignment away from the intersection of SR 7 and Western Reserve Road, the highway has not experienced any major changes since its inception. [4] [5]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Beaver Township, Mahoning County.
