Purpose
To learn about the planned highway work, share your thoughts, and get answers about the SH-4 improvements. This will be a come-and-go type meeting with no presentation. Project team members will be on hand to answer questions.
Description
ODOT and the Federal Highway Administration plan to improve State Highway 4 (SH-4) to increase safety and help traffic move better. The project covers the area between Interstate 44 (I-44) and State Highway 37 (SH-37), in Grady County, Oklahoma. Right now, SH-4 has two lanes for about 3.5 miles, then changes to a four-lane road with a middle turning lane. The road surface is wearing out and there is heavy traffic. About 9,000 vehicles use this road daily, and this number is expected to almost double by 2046.
To fix these issues, ODOT plans to build a new four-lane highway with a median. Two 12-foot-wide lanes with paved shoulders will be constructed in both directions. A second bridge over Sooner Road will be added.
Other improvements include:
• Re-paving the existing curb and gutter segment.
• Straightening angled intersections, drives and entrances.
• Modifying intersections to increase safety and traffic flow.
SH-4 will stay open during construction. Access to residences, businesses and the school will be maintained.
The SH-4 and Fox Lane intersection will be improved under a separate ODOT project (JP 34262(04)). That project will widen SH-4 to four lanes with a median and build a bridge so Fox Lane traffic can cross over SH-4. Project team members will be able to answer questions about this project, too.
