TULSA AND WEST TULSA
River Parks East Bank Trail
Watch for dump trucks and construction vehicles entering the north end of the parking lot by the Creek Smokeshop (north of 81st St South).
River Parks West Bank Trail between 71st and Turkey Mountain Parking Lot
As of mid January the repairs have been completed except for a section of missing pavement about 6-10 inches wide.
Newblock trail (between SW Blvd and Charles Page Blvd)
Closed until 2013.
Osage Drive (between Apache and 36th Street North).
Paving has been completed except where dirt work is still underway at the Tisdale expressway crossing. It looks like it might be a long time before this short section is completed.
Riverside at I-44
The trail on the east side of Riverside (at the light south of I-44) which connects with the East Bank trail has been removed as part of the I-44 widening project. Instead cross at 56th St South, but be careful there isn't a light at that intersection. The wide sidewalk from Riverside to Boston (at the light just north of I-44 and Riverside) has been removed.
W 51st Street (between highway 97 and 129th W Ave)
The road will be closed the last half of Jan for utility relocation. The road will then be widened to 4 lanes. Construction is expected to continue through the end of summer.
W 81st Street (between Union and Elwood)
Construction is underway on this street rehabilitation project. Traffic will be one-way (east bound) during the construction, which is expected to last through late April.
 

SOUTH TULSA, JENKS, BIXBY
Long term closure of Creek Turnpike (LIBERTY) trail at 145th E Ave
A new interchange is being built at 145th E Ave and the Creek turnpike. The trail is expected to be closed through at least July 1, 2012.
See the INCOG Liberty Trail web page for more info.
Bridge closed on 201st St South between Mingo and Memorial
Riverview between 151st and 161st St South
The base layer of pavement is down, but there are large drop offs in several places. It should be open soon. Detour around using Mingo.
Riverview and 148th St S (At the park and soccer fields in Bixby)
Utility and street work are underway. The intersection is currently dirt and gravel. Bixby plans to construct a traffic circle here, so expect a mess for several months. To detour you can turn at the portajohn along the river trail, go north through the parking lot, west on 148th St, then north on Armstrong to 151st Street.
