Ohio State Route 176 (SR 176) is a route linking Interstate 71 (I-71) in Cleveland to I-77 near Richfield. The freeway portion is known as the Jennings Freeway, while the at-grade portion is mostly Broadview Road.
Route description

From its southern terminus at I-77 to SR 17, SR 176 has at-grade intersections. SR 176's route from SR 17 (Brookpark Road) to I-71 is a limited-access highway. From 1968, it functioned as an exit off of I-71 and side streets, terminating at Denison Road and serving businesses in the industrial valley. As traffic volumes to suburbs such as Parma and Parma Heights increased – and to relieve traffic from I-77 to I-480– the freeway portion of the route (known as the Jennings Freeway) was extended as originally planned to I-480 and Brookpark Road (SR 17), opening December 8, 1998.[2][3]
History
Soon after its creation, SR 176 was extended to Akron, routed with U.S. Route 21 (US 21; here part of Cleveland-Massillon Road), over SR 92 (Ghent Road), replacing it, and along Market Street with a portion SR 18 (at the time, SR 18 followed Twin Oaks Road from Market Street) to downtown Akron, ending at the High Street/Broadway Street couplet (then SR 5, 8, and 261, now just SR 261). After the completion of I-77, SR 176 was relocated along Wheatley Road and moved on to I-77 from exits 143 to 138, before rejoining its original alignment. In the early 1970s, US 21 was changed to SR 21 at that location, and SR 176 was truncated at I-77 exit 143. SR 18 was also truncated, but realigned to follow the entirety of Market Street (which had also carried the also-truncated SR 8 east of High and Broadway) to end at SR 91.[4]
Major intersections
Ruta 176J
La Ruta 176J era el tramo de Broadview Road entre Brookpark Road ( SR 17 ) en Parma y Pearl Road ( US Route 42 ) en el barrio Old Brooklyn de Cleveland , que anteriormente albergaba la SR 176. Desde la reubicación de la SR 176 en la autopista Jennings en 1998, esta carretera estaba destinada a ser transferida del sistema estatal al gobierno local (el sufijo "J" significa "en espera de abandono"). [ 5 ] [ 6 ] La carretera se mantuvo bajo mantenimiento estatal hasta que fue transferida a la ciudad de Cleveland entre 2015 y 2017. [ 7 ] [ 8 ]
