Highway 60 Re-Opened Between Nowata And Vinita

The main highway between the Oklahoma communities of Nowata and Vinita has re-opened to traffic after crews rebuilt a railroad overpass and widened Highway 60 west of Vinita in Craig County.

The $2 million project was started in November 2011. The bridge is over BNSF railroad tracks.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is urging drivers to continue to use caution in the area through late May, as crews complete this project.
