FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR# 09-057
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is seeking citizen input on plans
for a proposed widening project on US-169 between I-244 and 56th St. North in Tulsa.
Plans call for widening US-169 from four lanes to six lanes in this area, and for
bridge rehabilitation work at Pine Street. Work will be done within the existing rightof-way, and no additional land will need to be acquired.
This call for input is part of a federal requirement to gather as much information
as possible about the proposed project area. While there is not a start date yet for this
proposal, there are tentative plans for a portion of the work on US-169 from I-244 to
36th St. North to receive bids in Fall 2009.
Citizens can contact the department to share their views on the proposal as part
of this environmental study. A copy of the proposed Typical Section Image is attached.
A hard copy can be requested from the address below, and can also be viewed at:
