Access Oklahoma Turnpike Projects

The priority will be to widen the Turner all the way to Oklahoma City.

That is not the priority. The priority is for the South OKC Metro Projects.

Not in the near future it isn't. The new turnpike extensions will take years before construction starts. Expanding Turner, Will Rogers and John Kilpatrick along with improvements to interchanges are first. All will come at much cheaper price tags and have a more immediate impact on traffic.

Turner, JKP, Will Rogers and improvements to interchanges = 2.105 billion. Gilcrease, Tri-City, East/West and South Ext = 2.895 billion.

Yeah, The Turner followed by the Will Rogers are OTA's cash cows. There is a reason why Play by plate is last on these two turnpikes. OTA wants to make sure they have everything right with it before dumping cash entirely.
