Cashless Tolling coming soon to Oklahoma
Bobby5280:
The H.E. Bailey Turnpike is technically set up for all cash-less tolling now. OTA still has a lot of construction work to do however. The Newcastle toll plaza on I-44 needs very serious modification in order to restore traffic flow to 2 lanes in both directions. The OK-5/I-44 interchange where the Walters toll plaza was located needs to be completely rebuilt. There is nothing physically wrong with the I-44 toll plaza between Lawton and Chickasha. It's only a shame the plaza was completed around 3 or 4 years ago, with human operated cash toll booths -only for them to be shut down permanently. Waste of money. At least that toll plaza has 2 PikePass lanes running in both directions.
The Newcastle toll plaza is probably the most urgent situation to fix. Still, that OK-5/I-44 interchange at Walters is pretty bad.

I'm glad I got the chance to throw my quarters into the change bucket on the Indian Nation last week.

The Cimarron Turnpike(US-412) should be mostly completed by the end of this week with the US-64, US-177 and the Stillwater Spur toll plazas to be finished by the end of the year:
