Highway
Review:
U.S. 69 runs from Port Arthur, Texas, to Albert Lea, Minnesota,
near the northern terminus of U.S. 65. It runs through Texas,
Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Minnesota. From Port
Arthur, U.S. 69 is duplexed with U.S. 96 and U.S. 287 until they
split in Beaumont.
In Oklahoma, U.S. 69 is 4-lane
divided expressway for almost its entire length. It starts out duplexed with
U.S. 75 just north of the Sherman and Denison, Texas area. U.S. 75 departs in
Atoka, and U.S. 69 continues straight ahead towards McAlester. From McAlester to
Muskogee, U.S. 69 is a freeway. The freeway crosses over Lake Eufaula a few
miles south of the cloverleaf interchange at Interstate 40. After entering
Muskogee from the southwest, U.S. 64 joins U.S. 69, and the freeway ends. U.S.
69 skirts the western side of Muskogee, and U.S. 62, U.S. 64, and OK 16 each
share roadway with U.S. 69. After leaving U.S. 62 and OK 16 behind, U.S. 69
continues as a 4-lane divided highway. Access to the Muskogee Turnpike is
available five miles north of Muskogee. After heading through Wagoner, U.S. 69
intersects U.S. 412 at a cloverleaf interchange and enters the town of Chouteau.
Just north of Chouteau is OK 69A and the Mid-America Industrial Park. The Mayes
County seat of Pryor is next on the northward trek on U.S. 69, and 18 miles
north of its intersection with OK 20 in Pryor, U.S. 69 intersects Interstate 44
and the 4-lane section ends. The highway then heads to the east duplexed with
U.S. 60 through the town of Vinita and another two intersections with Interstate
44. After finally leaving Interstate 44 behind for good, U.S. 69 heads through
Miami, Commerce, and Picher, and the highway enters the state of Kansas just
north of Picher.
