The City of Lawton has issued a public notice about the upcoming road closure along SW 38th Street starting early next year. For those regularly traversing the area, take heed that starting January 1, 2026, your route may need a slight adjustment to accommodate this change. The southbound lanes of the street from W. Gore Boulevard to SW Dr. Elsie Hamm Drive will be closed off to traffic, as reported by the City of Lawton's official announcement.
T&G Construction will start work on January 2, 2026, with the road closed to southbound traffic until February 1, 2026. Southbound drivers should use SW Sheridan Road as a detour to help traffic keep moving. Drivers and residents are advised to expect delays, follow detour signs, and drive carefully during the construction, according to the City of Lawton.
The City of Lawton thanks the public for their patience during the road construction. Drivers will see cones and signs guiding them around the closed section, reminding them of the ongoing improvements.
