Tulsa drivers will need to brace for some traffic snarls starting today. According to city officials, lane closures are imminent at a busy city crossroads as part of improvements to bring sidewalks up to the standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Specifically, the construction will affect Riverside Parkway and East 71st Street, where the northbound lane on the parkway and the westbound lane on the street will see closures. These disruptions, which are set to last until the forthcoming Friday, are a heads-up for those relying on this intersection for their daily commutes. Signs will be posted, but forewarned is forearmed – planning alternative routes could save time and headaches.
