Hello everyone, my name is Tom and I just joined the forum today. I'm a fellow road enthusiast who mostly concentrates on Interstate highways. I run my own website (http://www.crosscountryroads.com), partially inspired by AARoads. I look forward to meeting more road enthusiasts here and having good conversations with you guys!
Welcome aboard....enjoy your stay with us.....this is a cool bunch of guys and gals (Didnt want Ms Central to get miffed at me!)

Welcome to the forum Tom!
Welcome to the forum Tom!
Your I-44 pictures in Tulsa are now historic. All of I-44 east of US 75 is now 6 lanes except for the segment near Lewis Avenue. Thanks for documenting the original Skelly Drive.
This scene is completely different. The road is now 6 lanes, and the signs are Clearview and the OK 66 sign is now a meat cleaver.

This one is different too. The Harvard interchange is now about 1/2 mile east of where it used to be, and it loops back to 51st street. I-44/OK 66 is 6 lanes and concrete, and has an exit only lane for Harvard. The sign also mentions 51st Street now. It's all in Clearview, of course, with round tubular gantries.

I did see that things through the Tulsa area on I-44 were getting quite an overhaul last time I was through there, but that was well over a year ago and the construction was still pretty heavy so I wasn't able to get much of an idea of exactly what they were trying to do. I really wish I could get out there and see the new I-44 through Tulsa!
