CATOOSA, Okla,- A major interstate road project aimed at improving safety and traffic flow will start on Monday near Catoosa.
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) is constructing a new interchange at the junction of I-44 and Route 66. This project, which has an estimated cost of $42 million, is expected to last until the summer of 2026.
As part of the work, ODOT will straighten a curve in the westbound lanes of I-44 and replace the existing left-hand exit for eastbound Route 66 with a new exit ramp and bridge over the interstate. This upgrade will also provide drivers with direct access to Route 66 via 193rd East Avenue.
