Population Growth for OKC

[dankrutka]

It is noticeably worse just in the last 2 or 3 years and we need to be working on solutions ….now

This is a by product of growth and a car culture. I'm living in DFW this summer, and their construction will never catch up to the population boom. Traffic is insanely terrible. There are legit traffic jams on the highway at 6pm on a Sunday. OKC is still in good shape comparably.

I am aware of the Dallas congestion. It occurs in spite of a decent transit system that is continuing to grow.
Most big US cities are congested regardless of how urbanized they are.

Part of our quality of life in our area has been the relatively low congestion rates, comparatively speaking.
But we still need to stay ahead of the curve on this and not compare our self to others.
It’s part of why I hope we don’t grow too fast.
