Ohio's transportation infrastructure allows you to cost effectively deliver products and services anywhere at any time.
Highway transport
Crossed by eight major interstate highways, Ohio has easy southbound access through the Mid-Atlantic states to the Southeast. Ohio's east-west corridors traverse the country from coast to coast and into the Rockies. Interstate access also provides major benefits to in-state commerce with easy travel possible from any market in the state to another.
Air transport
Ohio offers access to five international airports:
- Columbus - Port Columbus International Airport and Rickenbacker International Airport
- Cleveland - Cleveland Hopkins International Airport
- Cincinnati - Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airports (in Covington, Ky.)
- Dayton - James M. Cox International Airport
Ohio also hosts major regional airports in Toledo (Toledo Express Airport), Akron/Canton (Akron-Canton Airport) and Youngstown (Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport).
Three air cargo hubs are also a critical component of Ohio's air transport network. Located at Rickenbacker, Toledo Express and Wilmington, Ohio, these intermodal transport opportunities provide seamless air-to-rail, air-to-highway and air-to-water connectivity.
Ohio's 180-public airport system provides a sure air transport solution to every region in the state.
Railway system
Ohio has the fourth-highest rail freight traffic in the county. Thirty-six freight railroads, covering 5,800 miles of track, cover the state. CSX Transportation, Norfolk Southern and Wheeling & Lake Erie all run rail operations through Ohio, along with smaller operators. Rail spurs connecting truck, air and water traffic maximize the benefit this system provides to the state.
Water transport
Nine ports on Lake Erie and 16 terminals along the Ohio River rank Ohio as the fourth-largest maritime state by tonnage moved. Because Ohio Port Authorities frequently offer both water and air transport, Ohio's maritime system proves a critical advantage in state product transport.
