Corporation Commission
Administrative Law Judge Charles Dudley has filed his written report regarding
Oklahoma City’s Walnut Street Bridge crossing.
Judge Dudley’s
recommendation denies the City of Oklahoma City’s request to remove the
existing above grade crossing commonly known as the Walnut Street Bridge
located between Northeast Second Street and Main Street.
With respect to the City’s
proposed at-grade crossing, Judge Dudley said in part “Removal of the grade
separation as proposed by the city in this proceeding in favor of an at-grade
crossing would create an extra hazardous crossing which would be a likely
candidate for closure…”
Copies of the report are
available at Commission offices at the Jim Thorpe Building at 2101 N. Lincoln
Blvd. Located in the capitol complex. Media may pick up a copy in room 311b of
the Thorpe Building.
