FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

YOU ARE INVITED TO ATTEND A PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
RE: Public Information Meeting for improvements to the intersection of State Highway 1 (SH-1), State Highway 99 (SH-99), U.S. Highway 377 (US-377), Arlington Street, and Mississippi Avenue, commonly known as “Crazy Corner.”

The Chickasaw Nation, City of Ada, Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad (BNSF) and the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) have partnered to improve the intersection of State Highway 1 (SH-1), State Highway 99 (SH-99), U.S. Highway 377 (US-377), Arlington Street, and Mississippi Avenue commonly known as “Crazy Corner.”

The existing Crazy Corner intersection is a five-legged, signalized at-grade intersection that has long been recognized for its unusual layout and safety challenges. The proposed improvements will reconstruct the intersection to provide a more conventional and efficient traffic flow pattern, improving safety and reducing driver confusion. The purpose and need of the project is to improve safety, enhance traffic operations, and accommodate existing and future traffic volumes while maintaining access to surrounding neighborhoods, businesses, and community destinations. Access to all existing private and commercial properties will be maintained during and after construction.

The Chickasaw Nation is hosting a Public Information Meeting to present the proposed improvements and share project details:

Date: January 22, 2026
Location: Chickasaw Nation Community Center
700 N. Mississippi Avenue
Ada, Oklahoma 74820
Time: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM

Should you have any questions regarding this project, please email [email protected] or call (405) 250-0727 and leave a detailed message.
