TULSA, Okla. — Construction crews closed the northbound lanes of Highway 75 north of I-44 Monday morning.

The closure was put in place to allow for the replacement of the bridge deck over Southwest Boulevard.

ODOT advises drivers to use I-44 as an alternate route.

The KRMG Traffic Team also recommends the Creek Turnpike as an alternate route.

ODOT told KRMG the bridge is decades old and is structurally deficient.

Drivers can expect the bridge to be closed until July.
