		The Ohio Turnpike (officially the James W. Shocknessy Ohio Turnpike) is a publicly-built toll east-west expressway across northern Ohio.
		The Ohio Turnpike was built during the 1950s by the Ohio Turnpike Commission which continues to own and operate it.
		For years, trucks had avoided the turnpike due to large toll increases in the 1990s, and because they could travel for free at the same speed on parallel highways such as State Route 2 and US 20.
