Heads up, Tulsa drivers: starting today, overnight construction could impact your travels on East 36th Street North. The City of Tulsa recently announced concrete pours for a bridge project that will extend from North Mingo Road to Mingo Valley Access Road, with the aim of improving the local infrastructure.
For those who favor the night roads thinking they'll escape the tangle of day traffic, think again—this work is slated to begin after the witching hour, continuing until the early morning and while the construction crew will be doing their utmost to minimize interruptions, minor delays are expected; this, as the trucks make their way to and from the site. The scheduled work will take a pause tomorrow, July 9 but will resume on Thursday, July 10, it won't stop until the job is complete, which is projected to be around July 15.
The exact hours of the pours were not specified, but considering they are occurring post-midnight, commuters who operate on a nocturnal schedule should be prepared for potential slowdowns. The city is urging drivers to practice extra caution when passing through the construction zone and to allow for additional travel time if they'll be in the area during these nights.
