YUKON, OK – Big improvements are on the way for one of Yukon’s busiest thoroughfares. Beginning July 28, 2025, a major Overlay Project will begin on Garth Brooks Boulevard, stretching from Andrew Drive to Health Center Parkway. The project is expected to last approximately 315 days.
This comprehensive upgrade will bring long-lasting benefits to drivers, pedestrians, and the overall flow of traffic. Improvements include:
- Road resurfacing for a smoother and safer driving experience
- New turn lanes to ease congestion
- Traffic signal upgrades for improved efficiency
- New sidewalks and walking trails to support pedestrian safety and connectivity
To complete these enhancements, traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction—northbound and southbound—on Garth Brooks Boulevard in the construction zone. The I-40 on- and off-ramps at Garth Brooks will also be affected during this time.
City officials recognize that this is a high-impact project and appreciate the public’s patience as crews work to make Garth Brooks Boulevard safer, more efficient, and more accessible. Should you have any questions or concerns, Yukon Public Works is ready to help at 405-350-8940.
