A road rehabilitation and waterline reconstruction project on East 91st Street from South Harvard Avenue to South Yale Avenue is scheduled to begin within the next two weeks. While work is anticipated to start on Monday, March 2, crews may begin mobilizing their equipment ahead of that time.
For the first half of the project, traffic will change to two-way in the eastbound direction only - and then change to two-way, westbound only, for the second half of the project. While school is out over the summer (late May to early August), 91st will be closed to all traffic from S. Quebec Ave. to the Jenks East entrance.
Drivers are encouraged to slow down and follow all posted traffic signs.
This project consists of a full pavement replacement, asphalt compaction to strengthen the surface of the road, and a 36-inch waterline reconstruction.
The City of Tulsa has contracted with Paragon Contractors for this $4,985,000 project funded through the Improve Our Tulsa sales tax. Construction is scheduled for completion by the end of the year, weather permitting.
Area neighbors have already been notified of a public meeting to discuss project specifics this Thursday at 6 p.m. at Fellowship Bible Church, 5434 E. 91st St.
