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.

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

Drivers can expect the bridge to be closed until July.
