Roads & Bridges

Roads & Bridges

If you have a question or concern about a road maintenance issue or an ongoing road project, please contact Brian Jasper at 405-713-2364 or by email.

Bridges

There are over 160 bridges listed on the Oklahoma County bridge inventory, 23 of those fall within the boundaries of District 1. Since 2007 District 1 has replaced or constructed 11 new bridges. We currently have engineering services for several upcoming projects. Funding for our bridge projects come from a variety of sources, including county, state and federal dollars.

Roads

Under Commissioner Blumert, District 1 has overseen the construction of 124 lane miles of road. Oklahoma County District 1 is responsible for maintaining approximately 169.93 miles of roads within Eastern Oklahoma County. This total includes roads in the unincorporated areas of District 1, as well as the interior roads in all or part of Forest Park, Jones, Nicoma Park and Spencer. Together, these two responsibilities account for approximately 32% of the total road miles in Oklahoma County. 

In addition to the primary road responsibilities listed above, District 1 has entered into partnerships for the maintenance and construction of roads with Oklahoma City, Midwest City and Del City.

We have donated the Labor and Equipment for over 42 School Projects allowing that money to be used for our students’ direct needs.
