Ken Bean Construction has progressed well despite utility construction. They have begun working on excavation and making fills.

Morton Construction has finished all the structures on the north side of the road well ahead of schedule and is almost 50% complete on the south side.

Cummins' crews are continuing work on the erosion control and have removed all the barrier wall we put up. Now ODOT is contemplating changes to the road that will require putting it back up.

The Calera, HWY 69/75 and Choctaw Road Intersection project has been completed ahead of schedule and is waiting on a final inspection. ODOT is wanting to add some work. Not sure how that is going to work out yet.

Work is progressing on our Pittsburg Co. job but it is hampered by wet conditions. Hub Construction is over 50% complete with the structures.

Work began on our I-35 job at Davis on June 2nd. It has become a joint effort involving crews from Enid, Ada and Stringtown. The Enid crew is doing the milling with Stringtown helping with the traffic control and clean up and Ada is following with the paving. While the job has its challenges due mostly to the heavy traffic of the interstate, work is progressing nicely.
