I'm not sure but the Salem bypass was built in 1974 from US 62 east and extended west to OH 14 in 1983. The Alliance bypass was built in 1974. As much as I was hoping that a bypass would be completed, US 62 just doesn't carry that much traffic between the two towns - which are both in decline.

And that connector to OH 11 looks like it would have been at https://historicaerials.com/location/40.91145443708429/-80.7190634791424/1983/16

Looking at HistoricAerials, older topos give a "proposed location" of the freeway east of Salem which answers a lot of my questions: https://historicaerials.com/location/40.91112960859689/-80.81635810728505/T1978/14

Be that as it may, completing an Alliance bypass for US 62 traffic would still be useful, given that existing US 62/OH 173 is a strip of commercial hell.  Even if  that simply meant completing a 2-lane extension east of OH 225 connecting to CR 22/Courtney Rd or (better yet) OH 165, it would be a great help.
