State Route 175 (SR 175) is a 15.70-mile (25.27 km) long north–southstate highway in the northeastern part of theU.S. state ofOhio. The southern terminus of SR 175 is at a signalized intersection withSR 43 inSolon. Its northern terminus is at a signalized intersection withSR 283 inEuclid.
All of SR 175 traverses the eastern portion ofCuyahoga County. SR 175 begins at the intersection of Richmond Road and Aurora Road (Ohio State Route 43). It quickly intersects Cannon Road, turns right to follow Cannon Road, and immediately turns left to continue north along Richmond Road. SR 175 intersects with the Outerbelt East Freeway, commonly known asInterstate 271 and also part ofU.S. Route 422. However, it is only a partial interchange; there is an exit ramp from I-271 South/US 422 East and an entrance ramp to I-271 North/US 422 West. It soon after intersects with Harvard Road, passing the Ahuja Medical Center and entering the city ofBeachwood. Further into Beachwood, it crosses Chagrin Boulevard (now with the US 422 designation) and picks up the designation forOH-87. OH -87 leaves Richmond Road at an intersection for Shaker Boulevard. SR 175 continues through the eastern suburbs of Cleveland, eventually terminating with Lakeshore Boulevard (OH 283).
When SR 175 was created in 1923, it ran fromPainesville westward along current SR 283 alongLake Erie to the current intersection of SR 175 and SR 283 in Euclid, then turned south along its current alignment until just northwest of its current southern terminus, where it followed Perkins and Columbus Roads southwest toSR 14 inBedford.[2][3]
In 1929, the portion of SR 175 along Lake Erie was replaced with part of the SR 6 designation (now SR 283), and SR 175 was shortened to its current northern terminus.[4][5]
In 1946, SR 175 was re-routed and extended southward through its current southern terminus to SR 14/Broadway Avenue on the boundary between Cuyahoga andSummit Counties, replacing theSR 613 designation that had run between SR 43 and SR 14. (SR 14 was later relocated ontoInterstate 480.)[6][7] By 1967, SR 175 was shortened to its current southern terminus.[8][9]
The entire route is inCuyahoga County.
