Driving in Centerville: U.S. 40, I-70 and School Crossings
U.S. 40 Through Centerville
The Town describes Centerville as located directly on National Road 40 and a short distance from Interstate 70. (Town of Centerville)
The Centerville Police Department states that its jurisdiction includes major I-70 and U.S. Highway 40 areas around the town. (Town of Centerville)
This creates a local mix of:
U.S. 40 through traffic.
Interstate-related traffic.

Main Street and Morton Avenue School Crossing
Centerville-Abington Community Schools' current Safe Walk Zone document identifies Main Street/U.S. 40 and Morton Street/Centerville Road as a key controlled crossing for students living north of Main Street. (Centerville-Abington Schools)
The same plan identifies Morton Street and South Street as another school walking-route intersection.
This is useful driver information because pedestrian activity around U.S. 40 is documented by the school corporation rather than assumed.
