OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - An 8-year plan to improve
Oklahoma's state-owned railroad infrastructure is among the items that
will be considered by the Department of Transportation during its
regular meeting.
The eight-member, governor-appointed panel meets Monday for its monthly meeting in Oklahoma City.
The board is expected to approve ODOT's 8-year plan
for construction and maintenance of state-owned railroad tracks and
bridges across the state.
The board also is expected to be briefed on the
department's efforts to treat and clear state highways during the winter
storm on Christmas Day that dumped snow and wintry precipitation across
the state.
The commission also is expected to vote on a
cost-sharing agreement with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to replace
the State Highway 151 bridge over the Lake Keystone Dam in Tulsa County.
