Learning to Drive in Granville: Denison, Main Street and Regional Routes
Denison University and Main Street
Denison University's official directions direct drivers from the regional highway system to OH-37/OH-661, then onto Main Street for the main campus entrance.
That gives Granville a city-specific learner-driving environment involving:
Regional-route traffic
Main Street
Campus entrances
Pedestrians
Visitors unfamiliar with local streets
College traffic is especially relevant to the 18-to-20-year-old audience.
Granville High School
Granville High School is at:
248 New Burg Street
Granville, OH 43023
This gives student drivers a second Granville-specific environment separate from Denison.
Granville Active Transportation
Granville's comprehensive plan incorporates the community's Active Transportation Plan and calls for continued improvement of walking, bicycling and pathway connections.
A beginning driver moving into central Granville should therefore scan deliberately for pedestrians and cyclists rather than focusing only on vehicle traffic.
Active SR 16 Widening Project
Granville currently identifies an ODOT SR 16 Widening project with a 2026-2028 timeline.
Project documents describe major pavement rehabilitation, additional general-use lanes, and bridge and culvert work in the SR 16/37 corridor.
Students and parents should use current ODOT and village updates because lane configurations and work zones can change during construction.
Construction information reviewed August 26, 2026.
