Just FYI, they’re saying that to justify building the turnpike expansions. I-35 will be widened to 10-14 lanes between OKC and Norman likely in the form of HO/T lanes. They will initiate a study to expand the interstate sometime this decade likely within the next 3-5 years. The section from Moore to Norman is already going to be studied for general purpose lane expansion as part of the service road project they are undergoing.
