Ohio State Route 609
State Route 609 is a long east-west state highway in the northeastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. The highway runs from its western terminus at a T-intersection SR 7 approximately west of the village of Orangeville to its eastern terminus at the Pennsylvania State line in Orangeville, where SR 609 meets a county-maintained road that straddles the border, Brockway-Sharon Road, at a T-intersection.
SR 609 was designated in the late 1930s. This two-lane state highway primarily serves to connect SR 7 with the village of Orangeville. It has done so throughout its history.
