Pavement rehabilitation project begins Monday on BA Expressway near downtown Tulsa

East and westbound SH-51/US-64/BA Expwy will both be reduced to two lanes between Lewis Ave. and US-75 (southeast corner of the Inner Dispersal Loop) beginning at 9 a.m., Monday, Jan. 9, through late 2023. Drivers are urged to use extra caution throughout the work zone and expect delays, especially during peak travel times.

This approximately $15 million project on SH-51/US-64/Broken Arrow Expwy between Peoria Ave. and Lewis Ave. will completely resurface the highway in this area as well as add new shoulders and barrier wall in the median. Two lanes of traffic will be maintained in each direction, except a 30-day period when traffic will be reduced to a single lane each way, notice will be sent when this occurs.

The Oklahoma Transportation Commission awarded the contract for this project to Sherwood Construction Inc. in August 2022.
