The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority took another step toward widening the I-44/Turner Turnpike to six lanes between Oklahoma City and Tulsa with a groundbreaking Tuesday afternoon in Wellston for a bridge reconstruction project.

Widening the corridor through a series of projects is a highlight of the ACCESS Oklahoma long-range plan.

Joining OTA Executive Director Joe Echelle were Oklahoma Lt. Gov. Matt Pinnell, Oklahoma Department of Transportation Director Tim Gatz and Wellston Mayor Paul Whitnah to celebrate the start later this month of a $48 million bridge reconstruction.
