Question for y'all: I just drove the Dayton International Airport Access Road and apparently it's not a state highway. So who maintains it? When was the freeway portion built through US 40 to I-70? Historicaerials suggests that first the new terminal was built (1961), then the new access road was constructed to US 40 (1968 shows it being improved near the terminal), but there's a gap to the "1984" aerial where the whole access to I-70 is shown. Meanwhile, the airport's own website suggests the access to I-70 came somewhat later than 1984, hence my quotation marks.

First ODOT map showing a connection between I-70 & Dayton Airport is 1983.
As to who maintains it? Either Montgomery Co or Vandalia (I don't believe the airport road is under the jurisdiction of Dayton).
Please, don't sue Alex & Andy over what I wrote above

The City of Dayton definitely is responsible for the Terminal Drive portion north of US 40. They were the local sponsor for a project to rehab that part of the roadway.

The section between US 40 and the vicinity of the I-70 interchange appears to be the City of Vandalia. They were the local sponsor for a resurfacing project according to the MPO.

It's not clear who handles the part right by the I-70 interchange. Maybe ODOT?
