OWASSO, Okla.- A big road construction project is coming to a busy stretch of roadway in Owasso. Drivers are hopeful the improvements will ease up traffic.

The city says more than 30,000 cars pass through 96th Street North along 129th East Avenue through Highway 169 every day. With two stop lights placed within 150 feet of each other, it does not take long for traffic and frustration to build.

“It’s very busy, there is a lot of wrecks here,” said Shelbi Fritz, a frequent traveler in the area. “Everybody’s getting off the highway, getting on the highway right here.”

Some drivers like Troy Lovvorn have to brave the busy area to get to work. He sees the congestion at its worst.

“It just gets crazy packed,” said Lovvorn. “It’s hard to turn. It’s hard to go across because people are running lights.”
