Description:

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is proposing to improve I-35 from I-40 (Fort Smith Junction) North approximately 4.5 miles to I-44 (Deep Fork) in Oklahoma County. This existing segment of I-35 consists of a four-lane fully controlled access facility with mostly two-way frontage roads, four interchanges, three overpass/underpasses and thirteen bridges. The purpose of this project is to evaluate operational and safety improvements of l-35 and its frontage roads as a continuation of improvements on I-35 in Oklahoma City.

ODOT has tasked a Consultant to develop preliminary design alternatives for this corridor along I-35. The purpose of the four alternatives for public input is to evaluate pavement widening recommendations to facilitate an ultimate six-lane corridor in conjunction with proposed improvements to the I-44 interchange, frontage road modifications, bridge replacements and/or removals among other operational and safety improvements. A total of four design alternatives have been analyzed. A stakeholder meeting was held June 28, 2018 and ODOT will be presenting all the project alternatives from that meeting at this public meeting for further input.
