| 摘要： | Prior to 1950, Oklahoma had no interstates and no four-lane divided highways. But demand for these highways was strong, so the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority (OTA) was created to build the Turner Turnpike, which connects Oklahoma City and Tulsa, as well as to open future alignments. By 1953, the 88-mile-long Turner Turnpike was opened and future alignments were then authorized in 1954. The Turner Turnpike, as well as the 100-mile-long Will Rogers Turnpike, which opened in 1957, were both asphalt roadways. In 1964, the OTA began constructing highways with concrete surfaces. The first one, opened in 1965, was the 86-mile-long Bailey Turnpike. Then came the 53-mile-long Muskogee Turnpike, opened in 1969; the 110-mile-long Indian Nation Turnpike, opened in 1970; and the 66-mile-long Cimarron Turnpike, opened in 1975. All four of these highways are four-lane divided highways constructed of plain jointed concrete pavement. |
