On one of his Saturday news broadcasts in
1998, veteran radio newsman and Tulsa native Paul Harvey read a letter
that had already been floating around for a few years. I fell in love
with the article the first time I heard it (I've still got the
recording around here somewhere) and decided to re-post the transcript
when I got the chance. Well worth a read.

One of the road-related websites that I
frequent, OKroads, has a section
where
the author puts forth his idea for a major beltway completely
encircling
Oklahoma City, which he called I-635. I thought I'd try the same thing
for
Tulsa. If we consider the I-44/244 combo the Inner Loop, and make the
Creek
Turnpike and (once it's completed) Gilcrease Expressway a weird-looking
Central
Loop, this road would most definitely be The Outer Loop. Or as I refer
to
it there, The Big Outer Beltway.
