TULSA, OK -- West 17th Street at Southwest Boulevard will be closed on Saturday, January 23, and Sunday, January 24, for construction of a waterline crossing the road. Traffic will be detoured to West 21st Street. Seventeenth Street will be reopened on Monday, Jan. 25.

This is part of a street rehabilitation project on Southwest Boulevard between West 23rd Street and the Arkansas River. The project consists of pavement rehabilitation - replacing damaged concrete panels. A thorough reconstruction is included near the railroad crossing.

Construction is scheduled for completion in October 2010.
