§ 5511.03.

The director of transportation shall examine the existing highway facilities serving

the several hospitals, educational institutions, and correctional and other similar

institutions belonging to the state, and located outside municipal corporations.  Where the director finds that any such state institution is not located on a state

highway or connected with a highway by a suitable road, affording in its present condition

adequate transportation facilities to those having occasion to visit such institution,

the director may establish a state highway leading to such institution from a convenient

point on an existing highway.  Where the director finds that any such institution is not served by adequate highway

facilities connecting it with the railroad delivery point from which it principally

obtains fuel, provisions, and supplies, the director may establish a highway connecting

such institution and railroad delivery point.  Limitations imposed on the mileage of state highways shall not apply to highways

established under this section. The director may construct at state expense all highways established under authority

of this section and pay the entire cost thereof from the state highway operating fund.  Such highways shall be maintained by the department of transportation and the cost

shall be paid from the highway operating fund of the department. The directors of transportation, mental health and addiction services, developmental

disabilities, and rehabilitation and correction may cooperate in the establishment,

construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and repair of roads within the limits of

state institutions.  The cost shall be paid from funds appropriated for highway purposes and from the

funds appropriated to the department of mental health and addiction services, department

of developmental disabilities, or the department of rehabilitation and correction

for capital improvements or maintenance in such proportion as may be agreed upon by

the directors of transportation, mental health and addiction services, developmental
