Tulsaʼs Proposed 5-Year Street Plan

Tulsa residents have been very vocal over the years about fixing our streets. And, there is no question that many more agree that because of the decades of inadequate street funding, Tulsaʼs streets are at an extremely bad point.

Last fall, there was a citizens panel appointed to study the issue extensively and make recommendations on how the city can best fix these street problems. After the panel reported their findings to the Mayor, the City Council launched a series of town hall meetings and held weekly committee meetings throughout the city, so Tulsans could voice their opinion. And, that they did. The citizens of Tulsa were loud and clear: fix our streets now.

So, in the upcoming November 4 General Election, every citizen registered to vote, will have the opportunity to vote on this 5 year, $451 million street plan. The plan is to fund the streets and only the streets. The plan also lets the voters hold their city government accountable for any, and all progress. For more information about this plan you can visit the www.cityoftulsa.org or the Tulsa Council website at www.tulsacouncil.org . Both have complete details on the five-year plan.
