Thanks to the request of U.S. Sen. James Inhofe, multiple, two-lane, rural Oklahoma highways could become immediate priorities with $65 million in additional federal funding.
One of those highways is located in Washita County.
Thursday, July 8, Oklahoma Secretary of Transportation Tim Gatz joined representatives from Sen. Inhofe’s office in Ardmore announcing the senator’s Congressionally Designated Spending requests for eight rural highway Oklahoma projects, including a portion of SH-152 west of Dill City. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation will use the funds to resurface and add paved shoulders to several narrow two-lane, rural highways.
