There's a few new things drivers need to look out for this week, most of them happening on Wednesday.

266 closed at Verdigris river

Highway 266 will be closed at the Verdigris river starting on Wednesday for two weeks.

That's north of the Port of Catoosa.

Signs will tell drivers to use highways 66 and 167 as detours.

More 244 changes

And there are more changes this week on I-244 because of the on-going pavement reconstruction project.

The westbound 244 off ramps to north and southbound highway 169 will be closed from Wednesday morning through early October.

Also, the westbound 244 on-ramp from Garnett will be closed from Wednesday morning through early October.

Also, the eastbound I-244 on-ramp from Memorial is now closed until further notice.

101st back open

Finally, in south Tulsa, 101st Street is now open to traffic again in both directions.

Crews are working a new bridge over Fry Ditch Creek between 72nd and 78th.

Because of that 101st was narrowed to eastbound traffic only, but it's now back open in both directions.
