Project Overview
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), is proposing roadway and bridge improvements on SH-9 from the Pecan Creek Bridge approximately 5.5 miles to the SH-102 intersection.
The purpose and need for this project is to improve both safety and traffic flow along this segment of SH-9. The existing SH-9 highway is a two-lane facility with 8-foot-wide shoulders and has higher-than-average commuter traffic. The current (2019) traffic on the segment west of the SH-9/SH-102 intersection is 5,130 vehicles per day (vpd) with a 2039 projected traffic of 7,180 vpd. These next phases of planned improvements to SH-9 are a continuation of an ODOT commitment to improve this heavily used route.
The proposed improvements consists of providing four (4) 12-foot-wide driving lanes with a 14-foot-wide center left-turn lane and 10-foot-wide paved shoulders. Bridges will be replaced at Bullfrog Creek and Jim Creek. Intersection improvements are planned with SH-9 at NS-330 to correct the skewed intersection.
