2 area projects noted on ODOT’s 8-Year Plan

SH-76 to get shoulders, rehabilitation

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation just released its updated Eight-Year Plan and two area projects were on the plan. The projects are to reconstruct and rehabilitate a portion of SH76 at Newcastle, and reconstruct and rehabilitate US-62 at Blanchard.

The SH-76 project is from the north fork of Walnut Creek, north approximately 4.5 miles to SH-130 in Newcastle. The project will add shoulders to the existing twolane road, and the road will be reconstructed and rehabilitated. Planning on the $19 million project was completed in fall 2022, but environmental work hasn’t been started. Environmentals are planned for completion in fall this year.
