Site work and new construction of a bridge / tunnel in Kingston, Oklahoma. Conceptual plans call for site work for a bridge / tunnel.

The Roosevelt Bridge Project will construct a new multimodal bridge across Lake Texoma on a new alignment south of the existing bridge. The new bridge will have a total length of 10,625 feet and consist of 72 spans. The superstructure will be made of prestressed concrete girders that will support a concrete deck. The substructure will consist of multi-column piers with 10-foot diameter drilled shafts that will be founded on bedrock. The bridge will have four lanes of traffic with 10-foot shoulders on each side and a median barrier to separate the directions of travel. The bridge will also have lighting fixtures to enhance visibility and safety at night. In addition, the Project will include multimodal accommodations for cyclists and pedestrians, such as a barrier separated path. US-70 between State Park Road and Willow Springs Road will be widened to a five-lane section (two driving lanes in each direction and center turn lane) to provide continuity with the sections to the east and west. Turn lanes will be provided where needed at intersections, and a traffic signal and crosswalk are anticipated at the State Park Road intersection to accommodate traffic from adjacent development. The new bridge will still be connected to Highway 70. It will be built further south than the current bridge. The current bridge won’t be demolished but it is unknown what it will be used for. ODOT is still working on the funding source for the new bridge, and it is estimated to cost between $150-250 million. As of July 15, 2024, Environmental planning Spring 2026. Design is planned for Spring 2028. Right-of-Way planned for Summer 2028. Construction let date 2029.Estimated completion date is to be determined.
