Tucson Street widening and April bond election
Ward 3, Ward 4, and the at-large council seats will be on the spring ballot, with filing periods and contests handled through the Tulsa County Election Board.
Closure of a portion of right of way near Kenosha Street
A long-missing sidewalk gap on Kenosha between roughly Sycamore and Narcissus will finally be filled for $324,239.76 — well under the $382,000 estimate — improving walkability to the Walmart area.
South Ash Avenue closure over Union Pacific Railroad
A short stretch of Ash Avenue next to the grain silo will close as part of the deal to buy land around the silo. The Rose District farmers market parking lot stays accessible.
Tulsa Transit on-demand pilot program
The on-demand ride pilot is averaging 850 riders a month, mostly helping seniors and people without reliable transportation reach appointments and jobs. Weekend expansion is on hold because the transit authority lacks drivers and won't share its app.
