KINGSTON, Okla. (KXII) - Expect major slow-downs at the Roosevelt Bridge on Highway 70 starting Wednesday.

After delaying over the holidays, crews will get back to their ongoing maintenance project on the Roosevelt Bridge. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation says this project is meant to preserve the nearly 80-year-old bridge.

“But this is a very old bridge and it does need maintenance quite a bit,” said Mills Leslie, spokeswoman for ODOT.

Both east and westbound Highway 70 at the Roosevelt bridge over Lake Texoma will be down to one lane starting Wednesday, till the end of April.
