Broken Arrow in Motion June 25, 2026

The City of Broken Arrow is moving forward with several projects across the community, that are making significant improvements to the city's infrastructure.

Connectivity is extremely important to our residents, so we are installing sidewalks and trails throughout the city to make it easier for everyone to travel to home, work, and play.

For example, the Kenosha Street Sidewalk project includes the construction of approximately 2,000 square yards of new sidewalk and associated ADA ramps. The project's first phase is already about 70 percent complete, from the Ninowski Recreation Center entrance to the east side of Rhema Bible Church. Once the first phase is finished, the contractor will begin Phase 2 in coordination with Union Pacific Railroad in the coming weeks.

Next, work has begun on the grain silo in the heart of the Rose District. The conveyor chute on the east side has been removed, and crews are now finishing demolition of another chute on the south side and the existing ladder. The crew is also removing the platform on top. Once this work is complete, the grain silo will be painted, and the Rose District logo added, making it a signature focal point of the City of Broken Arrow.

Staying downtown, the Main Street Water Line Project is going exceptionally well and is on track. City crews have set the new 12-inch water line from Mason Drive to Pittsburgh Drive and are tying it into the city system. Soon, they'll cross Main Street with several new fire hydrant crossings and another new line across Mason Drive. Next up, we'll continue south with construction from Pittsburgh to West Urbana Street.

At the Houston Street Water Line Project, from 1st Place to 6th Street, the water line has been completed. Crews are now preparing to disinfect, flush, and test the lines before connecting to residential homes. Stormwater improvements are still to come.

The 1st Place Waterline and Trail Project is progressing well. Crossland Construction has installed the concrete sidewalk from Washington Street to Canton Street and is installing driveways between Washington and Boston streets. They are also working on the storm sewer, as well as the concrete walls and footings on both sides of Canton Street and 1st Place.

Going south, the elevated 2.5-million-gallon water storage tank is also moving forward. All the mechanical work is finished, and the electrical work is almost finished. The tank is on track to be put into service the first week in August. Dirt work is underway to prepare for sod and seeding.
