The logo sign program provides for the placement of business logos at rural and urban freeway and expressway interchanges for gas, food, lodging, camping and attraction facilities meeting certain eligibility criteria. This program has been operated by a private company, Ohio Logos, Inc., working under contract with ODOT, since 1992. This contract expires on March 18, 2008. A new contract is being developed, but will not be in place for the next few months. In the interim, the following will apply:

  1. Fee collection from the participating businesses will be suspended as of March 18, 2008 (logo sign program only).  No fees will be collected from participating businesses until a new contract is executed.
     

  2. Existing logo signs and supports will remain in place, and will be maintained by ODOT district forces. Knockdowns or otherwise damaged signs and supports will be repaired or replaced by ODOT district forces.  To report needed maintenance contact the appropriate district office.
     

  3. New supports will not be installed, except as needed to maintain the existing system.
     

  4. The ability of ODOT to accommodate new requests for participation in the logo program will be limited during this interim period. Businesses interested in participating in the logo program should review eligibility requirements and complete an application form (available in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF versions).  Signed and dated application forms should be mailed to the appropriate district office.
