Fans traveling to Saturday's OSU game in Stillwater may want to leave extra time for possible traffic tie ups in downtown Tulsa and on the Cimarron Turnpike.
A large project on the Interstate 244 bridge downtown will re-route traffic around that area.
For those headed westbound on the Broken Arrow Expressway, traffic must go north on U.S. 75 to connect to I-244 westbound, where drivers can exit onto Oklahoma 51 westbound to get to the Cimarron Turnpike.
On the Cimarron Turnpike, westbound lanes will be narrowed to one lane for about seven miles, beginning one mile west of Hallet, said Jack Damrill, a spokesman for the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority. Damrill said the eastbound lanes are being resurfaced and traffic is expected to be "basically head to head" on that portion of the turnpike.
