SB 1475 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Memorial roads and bridges; designating the Toby Keith Memorial Interchange. Effective date.

SB 1475 designates the bridge on Indian Hills Road over Interstate 35 in Norman (Cleveland County) as the "Toby Keith Memorial Bridge," requiring the Oklahoma Department of Transportation to install permanent markers and collaborate with Toby Keith's family to create artwork honoring his life and career using public donations (not state funds). The bill mandates that any future replacement bridge or interchange at this location must retain the "Toby Keith Memorial Bridge" designation. This is a commemorative measure with no new policy or funding requirements beyond the specified artwork and naming.
