Public input sought on SH-18 Cushing virtual public meeting live through June 28
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is offering a virtual public meeting to present information on a future project to widen and improve SH-18 at SH-33 in Cushing. The proposed project will add a center turn lane, widen shoulders and add sidewalks among other features to improve traffic movement along SH-18 between SH-33 and County Rd. EW690/Deep Rock Rd. This project is in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration.
The purpose of the virtual meeting is to inform the public of the proposed project and to solicit comments about the environmental and societal impact of widening SH-18, which will require some right-of-way acquisition. Engineers and planners are seeking comments on whether this project meets current traffic needs and to share with them any pertinent information about the corridor. The SH-18 widening is tentatively scheduled in FFY 2025 at an estimated $6.5 million.
