It's older than that, even—a photo of it appears on the back of the 1956 state highway map. I'm guessing it was built as part of the southern H.E. Bailey turnpike segment.

Then the rust started bleeding through. It's starting to look really bad now. Maybe if they painted the whole thing that dark burgundy color that might have done more to hide rust, but it would have looked pretty harsh. Rust really shows through that light tan EIFS color. I think that tri-level bridge for Cache Road running into I-44 was built sometime back in the 1960's. I'm surprised ODOT hasn't just replaced those things. They've done so with so many old bridges of similar designs elsewhere in Oklahoma.

No, most of it was already there when the Bailey was built ca 1964. ODOT tacked on the eastern ramps so US277 (before it was I-44) could bend east into the Cache Creek floodplain. Cheaper to build there than to plow straight south along 2nd.
