Oklahoma City, OK — The Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) has announced the closure of southbound lanes on Interstate 35 at the junction with I-44 westbound. The closure, which began at 11:48 a.m., is due to repairs being made to the construction zone’s barrier wall.
Action Safety, the company responsible for the repairs, has temporarily diverted southbound traffic to I-44 westbound, where motorists will be rerouted as work on the barrier wall is underway.
OHP officials urge drivers to follow posted detour signs and expect delays in the area. As the closure is expected to last for an undetermined period, travelers are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid heavy traffic congestion.
For more information on road conditions and updates, drivers are encouraged to monitor OHP advisories and local traffic reports.
