This project's scope covers all state highways in Oklahoma. To clarify, this means roads maintained by ODOT or OTA. City, county, and privately-maintained roads are not within the scope of this project. (WikiProject U.S. Streets is more appropriate for city streets anyway.) For convenience, here is a chart of all active state numbered highways.
The ODOT web site has a section that lists memorial highways and bridges on Oklahoma highways. While this is of marginal importance to the articles, each page also contains a complete history (changelog) of each route that has a memorial name or bridge on it.
On September 7, 1999, the Oklahoma State Transportation Commission approved an item realigning US-59 and SH-100 in Stilwell, removing US-59 from Second Street and placing it on Front Street. [25] On March 3, 2003, the commission approved elimination of two sharp curves in western Ottawa County, shortening the highway by 0.57 miles (0.92 km).
As a result, the OTA could not obtain financing to build that proposed turnpike and turned the initial plans including surveys and blueprints over to the Oklahoma Department of Transportation in 1956 for the construction of I-35 as a freeway on that same alignment, which was completed in several stages between 1958 and 1962.
The road then turns northeast toward Alabaster Caverns State Park. As the highway approaches the park, it spawns a spur leading into the park, SH-50A, before continuing northeast, clipping the northwest corner of the park boundary. [3] The road then gradually eases into a more northerly heading as it approaches the Cimarron River.
