Motorists can expect eastbound and westbound SH-51 (Sixth St.) lanes to shift to the south at US-177 (Perkins Rd.) in Stillwater early Wednesday morning through August as part of an ongoing reconstruction project. SH-51 remains narrowed to one lane in each direction between the Stillwater Central Railroad crossing and the US-177 (Perkins Rd.) intersection.
Additionally, northbound and southbound US-177 (Perkins Rd.) remains narrowed to one lane in each direction between Hall of Fame Ave. and 12th Ave. through August.
All lanes of SH-51 and US-177 are scheduled to open to traffic Aug. 30 in time for the first Oklahoma State University home football game. Intermittent lane closures at the intersection are expected to resume Sept. 4 while final details of the project are completed through fall 2017.
