A $3 million project to resurface SH-18 between Meeker and Chandler has begun, with the project expected to last through September.
The project impacts about 14 miles of roadway through Lincoln County.
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation reports SH-18 will be intermittently narrowed to one lane, with pilot cars and flaggers directing traffic daily between US-62 in Meeker and SH-66 in Chandler.
"The contractor will only be narrowing SH-18 to one lane during daytime hours and for one or two-mile stretches at a time," said Cody Boyd from ODOT. "Drivers must always be cautious in the work zone – even when work isn’t happening – since the center line and edge lines will only have temporary markings and the driving surface will be uneven as new sections are paved."
