Learning to Drive in La Rue: SR 37 and SR 95
State Route 37 / High Street
ODOT's current Marion County road inventory identifies SR 37 as High Street through La Rue.
For a learner, High Street combines:
Village intersections
Parked vehicles
Local access
Through traffic
State-highway travel
State Route 95 Begins in La Rue
SR 95's western terminus is at SR 37 in La Rue.
ODOT identifies SR 95 as East Market Street within the village.
This gives students a particularly clear route-reading exercise: one state highway ends or begins at another inside a compact village.
Active 2026 SR 95 Resurfacing
ODOT's 2026-2029 transportation program includes resurfacing approximately four miles of SR 95 from the La Rue east corporation limit to the New Bloomington south corporation limit.
The project includes pavement repairs and asphalt resurfacing, with approximately $1.87 million programmed for 2026.
STATUS: 2026 ROADWAY PROJECT.
Students traveling east from La Rue should expect temporary traffic-control changes while work is underway.
SR 37 Scioto River Bridge Replacement
ODOT also has a separate bridge-preservation project in La Rue on SR 37 approximately 0.26 mile south of SR 95 over the Scioto River.
Construction funding is programmed for 2026.
STATUS: 2026 BRIDGE PROJECT.
This makes La Rue one of the most construction-sensitive pages in the Marion County batch.
Local Street Grid
ODOT's village inventory identifies streets including:
School Street
Section Street
Swain Street
Vine Street
Market Street
High Street
These provide useful lower-speed practice around the village center.
Elgin Local Schools
La Rue is served by Elgin Local Schools, but the current consolidated school campus is on Keener Road South near Marion rather than inside La Rue.
A former Elgin school site is associated with 350 N. High Street in La Rue, but it is no longer the current high-school campus.
