Commuters in Midwest City can expect the Anderson Rd. underpass beneath I-40 to open on Monday. Eastbound I-40 will be narrowed to two lanes in each direction between Town Center Dr. and the I-240 interchange, with lane shifts continuing through 2025, according to the Oklahoma Department of Transportation.
Eastbound I-40 will have no shoulders or merge areas, so drivers should be careful. The eastbound I-40 on and off-ramps at Anderson Rd. will stay closed through the summer. Drivers heading south on Douglas Blvd. cannot use the ramp to eastbound I-40. The northbound Douglas Blvd. off-ramp is open, but traffic merging from there has limited options, as reported by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation.
The eastbound I-40 on-ramp from Industrial Blvd./Ave. and the westbound off-ramp to it are permanently closed. Drivers can use the protected turnaround at Town Center Drive to access eastbound Industrial Blvd. from westbound I-40. The westbound I-40 off-ramp to Douglas Blvd is open, but drivers going to Hruskocy Gate should avoid Douglas Blvd and use the new turnaround. The eastbound I-40 off-ramp to Town Center Dr./Eaker Gate has a left lane closed until spring 2025. These changes may affect traffic in Midwest City, as stated by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation.
