TULSA - Two major Tulsa streets are still shut down.

Lewis closed at I-44

Lewis remains closed at I-44 because of the 44 widening project.

Drivers can use Peoria and Harvard as detours.  

Lewis will likely be closed there for up to 19 more months.

Peoria closed at 61st

In south Tulsa, Peoria remains shut down at 61st Street this week.

It should be closed for about one more week while crews work on a sewer line.

You can use Riverside as a detour.

It's part of the larger project to widen 61st between Peoria and Riverside.

The entire project is scheduled to be finished in March.

Broken Arrow Expressway lanes open

And finally the project that's been a thorn in a lot of drivers sides is finally over.

All lanes of the eastbound Broken Arrow Expressway near Yale are now open.

ODOT says drivers should still take it easy through there, as crews put some finishing touches on the bridge work they were doing.
