Learning to Drive in Antioch: SR 800 and Rural Roads
State Route 800
ODOT's current municipal road inventory shows SR 800 passing directly through Antioch.
SR 800 is the village's defining regional highway.
For a beginning driver, it requires:
Speed adjustment entering and leaving the village
Curve awareness
Longer following distances
Rural intersection scanning
Careful nighttime driving
West Union Road
ODOT identifies West Union Road as connecting directly with SR 800 at Antioch.
This gives students a useful transition between a state highway and a smaller county road.
Cross Street, Hancock Street and Vernon Street
The current ODOT inventory also identifies:
Cross Street
Hancock Street
Vernon Street
Mill Street
Town Run Road
within the village road network.
These roads give students lower-speed practice before progressing onto SR 800.
Hills and Curves
Antioch should not be written like a flat western Ohio village.
Monroe County's countywide road environment consists of rolling Ohio Valley hills and curving rural highways.
A beginning driver should:
Brake before a curve
Avoid passing near hill crests
Look farther ahead
Reduce speed when sight distance is limited
School District
Antioch is within the Switzerland of Ohio Local School District.
The district's current 2026 school list does not identify a school building in Antioch. Its active campuses are in communities including Beallsville, Woodsfield, Graysville, Hannibal and Powhatan Point.
Students should verify their assigned campus directly with the district rather than this page guessing based on geography.
