Piketon

Piketon straddles the Scioto River valley in southern Ohio, and this low corridor has long concentrated farms, roads and settlement between the Appalachian Plateau and the river. The village stands on U.S. Route 23, a major north–south route through this part of the state. Its modern identity is closely linked to the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant nearby, a Cold War-era uranium-enrichment complex that operated from 1954 to 2001 and is now undergoing federal cleanup. Bottomland fields, wooded hills and small Scioto Valley communities surround the village. Browse additional webcams from southern Ohio to extend your view of the Scioto Valley.
