A concrete street maintenance project was scheduled to begin April 15 on East 71st Street between South Mingo Road and South Memorial Drive. The project also includes the intersection of 71st Street and Memorial Drive.

Work is scheduled to begin at Mingo Road, moving west as the project progresses. Lane closures will vary as needed; a minimum of one lane will be open in each direction. Left turns may be limited or restricted.  Access to all businesses will be maintained and marked with blue “Business Access” signs.

Officials said Tulsans are encouraged not to avoid construction areas, but to support the area businesses throughout the construction project. Construction will stop for the months of November and December for the holiday shopping season. The project will resume in January 2022, and completion is scheduled for spring 2022.
