This view shows the westbound Broken Arrow Expressway bridge over 15th Street. The bridge deck has had some minor repairs and is in better condition than that on the eastbound bridge. Eventually, the bridge deck eventually will have to be replaced. Several years after this photo was taken, the bridge received an asphalt overlay as part of a resurfacing project on the Broken Arrow Expressway. According to the Oklahoma Department of Transportation’s project listing (2013), the bridge is scheduled for rehabilitation in the mid 2010s. Photo taken Aug. 21, 1987.
