I40/I44 Interchange

Haven’t heard anything on this one in a while now

The 8-Year Plan still has this scheduled to start in FFY2024

Well the saga of I44 continues. They have moved all the way up to the bridge just south of the I-40 junction.

I hope this is the last piece to do and they will leave this stretch of road freaking alone. MY lucky, they'll finish it up just in time to start the entire junction work so we can start enjoying that fun for the next 10 years.

Why not just rebuild the entire interchange instead of doing small tweaks constantly? The infrastructure money is there, and it would qualify.

Is there a timeline on the current work right now?

The stretch of WB I-40 between this interchange and the North Canadian is terrible, the potholes are awful and half of the road signs can't be read. Will that stretch be fixed when this interchange gets reworked?

While it looks like they have plans to do surface work on that area already on the 8-year plan, there is not really anything indicating it is expressly linked to work on the i40/i44 junction, and it is not uncommon for individual project's order in the plan to change as new versions of the plan come out.

Drove through here recently, and I think the eastbound I-40 bridge is more potholes and patches than pavement. It's in pitiful shape, hope they at least re-pave it soon.
