Okla. Stat. tit. 69, § 69-3004: Connecting or feeder roads or streets

If, in the opinion of the board of trustees of such public

trust, and of the contractor, that it would be economically wise to

improve or construct connecting or feeder streets or roads to the

toll expressway, even though such connecting streets or roads would

be free roads, then in such event, the trust shall have the

authority to let contracts for the construction of such connecting

or feeder roads or streets under the following conditions:

1. The consent of the governing body, having jurisdiction over

such street or road is first obtained.

2. Such portion of the contract price or the work to be

performed as the trust agrees to pay or to perform shall be paid in

revenue bonds, if such construction is part of the original

construction of the toll expressway, or, from surplus revenues in

excess of the maintenance fund requirements, or in such manner as

may be lawful and proper.

3. The trust shall be empowered to enter into contracts with

any county or municipality in whose jurisdiction such connecting or

feeder roads or streets are located, for the sharing of the work or

costs in the improvement or construction of such roads or streets.

The trust may do such things as are necessary and practical to

qualify the construction and the project for any available federal

matching fund programs.

4. In any project for the construction or improvement of

connecting or feeder roads or streets and for which federal matching

funds have been applied for or approved, the contractor shall have

the right to agree with the governing body for the performance of a

portion of the work if such governing body is properly qualified and

equipped, and to compensate such governing body for the work

performed, but failure of the governing body to properly perform

shall not relieve the contractor from its obligation to build in

accordance with the terms of the contract and the plans and

specifications, even though it may be entitled to compensation for

such failure of performance from such governing body.

5. For such portions of the work to be assumed by any governing

body in the construction of improvement of any connecting or feeder

roads, the governing body shall be subject to the laws applicable to

it when contracting for like work on its roads or streets.
