^A westbound trailblazer leading away from Ohio 202 in Troy, August 2023.

​Ohio State Route 55 is an east-west route in west-central Ohio.  It is only found in Champaign and Miami Counties.  The eastern end is on the south side of Urbana, at US Route 68.  Ohio Route 55 starts out from Urbana to go west-southwest through Christiansburg to Troy.  It continues beyond Troy to the west-southwest, to serve Ludlow Falls and Laura, two small towns in southwestern Miami County.  Laura is where Ohio Route 55 ends, at Ohio Route 571.

​​An older photo once took center stage on this page, but it has been relocated to the bottom of this page. This new featured photo, shown next, is better than the older one, in my opinion.

My new photo of Ohio Route 55 comes from a 4-way intersection with Ohio Route 235. This intersection is just east of the small town of Christiansburg. Northbound travelers on Ohio Route 235 see the sign depicted above when they get to the junction. This photo was taken on a trip across Ohio and Indiana in April 2026.

My older photo of Ohio State Route 55 comes from Casstown, a small town northeast of Troy.  This photo shows signage at the north end of a jog Ohio Route 55 takes through Casstown.  The signage faces south, indicating that Ohio Route 55 continues to the east by turning right, while Ohio Route 589 begins on the street ahead.  This photo was taken in September 2017, driving home from Columbus using an indirect route (via Celina and Bryan).
