 TULSA, Okla. - The Oklahoma Department of Transportation will start phase one on a huge construction project on Monday at Interstate 44 and Highway 75.

ODOT said the $90 million project is the single largest contract for highway construction in Tulsa history. It will impact traffic for the next two years.

"It's really frustrating for drivers, as it is right now, but certainly recognizing that once we go in and start making improvements, it will get better," ODOT spokesperson Kenna Mitchell said.

Starting Monday, the renovations will include widening I-44 from four lanes to six lanes from the west side of the Arkansas River bridge to Union Avenue.
