Thank You!

The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority is appreciative of all those who attended one of two public meetings in May in Purcell and Norman to give input on the South Extension Turnpike route alignment, which is part of the ACCESS Oklahoma long-range plan.
 

The future South Extension Turnpike must move to the west of a previously proposed alignment. This turnpike will connect the East-West Connecter with I-35 to the south near Purcell, serving as a traffic reliever route for the congested I-35 Southern Corridor.

 

Since OTA has been cleared of all legal challenges, it is restarting design work to modify a previous alignment to determine the least impactful location while serving growing traffic needs in the area.

 

OTA is seeking input from residents, property owners and business owners, especially those who may not have had an opportunity to provide input yet. Public comment on the project is open through June 30.
