2009 International Residential Code (2009 IRC) Adopted

       STREET REMAINS CLOSED - Village on Main Project

South 9th Street/Riverfront Drive remains closed for construction activity related to the Village on Main development activity.  Access will be maintained to Tulsa Teachers Credit Untion and residential properties on these streets.

Drivers are advised to obey all traffic control signs in construction zones.  When streets are closed or lanes are barricaded off in a work zone, it is for the safety of workers and the general public.  Construction workers and equipment operators, not expecting traffic to be on a closed street, could walk out from behind a vehicle or move equipment into the path of vehicles violating closed work areas.

If you move or drive around a construction work zone sign, you are breaking the law and subject to a traffic citation.   Due to numerous violations of this nature, Jenks police will be watching all construction work zones for traffic violations such as speeding and driving around or moving construction road signs.
