ACCESS PROGRAM UPDATE

 

The first ACCESS Oklahoma long-range plan construction project will begin in February 2024 to widen the I-44/Turner Turnpike to six lanes between Heyburn and Bristow in Creek County. Additionally, preliminary engineering activities are resuming this month for initial priority projects in the 15-year long-range plan.

 

ACCESS Oklahoma will update Oklahoma’s turnpike system with new interchange access points to communities, widen existing turnpikes, update bridges and pavement and add three new routes in the Oklahoma City metro area to complete the Outer Loop and provide an I-35 reliever route.

 

This long-range plan has always been about motorist safety. OTA’s mission is to help facilitate traffic throughout the state by seamlessly connecting with the state highway system, thereby providing a choice for a safe, convenient, and efficient user-funded transportation network. OTA’s goal is to provide safe infrastructure while maintaining the lowest toll rate for our customers.

ACCESS Oklahoma stands for Advancing and Connecting Communities and Economies Safely Statewide. This $5 billion, 15-year long-range

plan identifies and addresses on-going highway infrastructure needs to improve access to communities across the Oklahoma turnpike network.

PROJECT MAP

The interactive GIS map below shows the program’s preliminary alignments and locations which are within the orange shaded areas. The shaded areas are approximately 1200 ft wide and provide a starting point for environmental impact studies. Design engineers will use information from those studies to narrow the alignments to approximately 600 ft or less. Those changes will be updated through this public platform.
