From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State Route 501 is a north-south state highway in the western portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its southern terminus is at an interchange with U.S. Route 33 just south of Wapakoneta, which is also the western terminus for State Route 67 and the southern terminus for State Route 198. The route runs concurrently with both of the other two routes into Wapakoneta, and with State Route 198 only north of the village. State Route 501’s northern terminus is at State Route 117 approximately 6 miles west of Lima.
