The extension of Harvard Avenue in Tulsa opens access from the
north for a new school in Jenks, and will also give the property along Harvard
Avenue between the Creek Turnpike and 91st Street a new access from the south.
BKL performed an alignment study and presented a conceptual report for the
project. Later we were retained to do preliminary design plans and subsequently
final plans.
BKL designed a new collector street, thirty–six feet wide, from
the intersection with 101st Street South, crossing the Vensel Creek Tributary
Channel to an existing cul-de-sac that is at the south end of the existing
Harvard Avenue. From the cul-de-sac the project improvements continue north on
the existing bridge over the Creek Turnpike and to the existing paved twenty-six
foot wide road north to the 91st Street intersection.
BKL designed improvements to the intersection of 101st Street and
Harvard including signalization and approximately 1000 feet of widening (from
2-lane to 3-lane) along 101st Street. We performed hydraulic analysis for the
Vensel Creek Tributary and designed a new RCB structure and channel improvements
on either side of the box bridge. BKL also designed modifications to the
existing Harvard Avenue Bridge over the Creek Turnpike to accommodate the Tulsa
Trails system.
