Learning to Drive in Caledonia: SR 309 and SR 746

For a beginning driver, SR 309 provides experience with:
Village intersections
Through traffic
Higher speeds outside town
Rural-road transitions
Regional trips toward Marion
State Route 746 Ends in Caledonia
SR 746 has its northern terminus at SR 309 in Caledonia. The route approaches from the south through rural Marion and Morrow County farmland.

Marion Street and the Village Center
Caledonia Village Hall is located at:
110 E. Marion Street
Caledonia, OH 43314.
Marion Street and the surrounding village grid offer lower-speed practice before students progress onto SR 309 or SR 746.

Caledonia, OH 43314.
The school campus gives Caledonia-area students practice around:

Athletic events
A rural arterial leading to and from school
