This bill amends Oklahoma law to remove the Turnpike Authority's authorization to construct a specific new bridge crossing the Arkansas River between South Delaware Avenue and Memorial Drive in Tulsa County, which was contingent on the bridge being self-sufficient from toll charges over thirty years. Concurrently, it grants the Turnpike Authority authorization to build a new bridge crossing the Arkansas River in the vicinity of Bixby, Oklahoma, and makes these changes effective on November 1, 2026.
