OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – Oklahoma is getting $465 million in economic stimulus money for state roads and bridges.

Among the priorities for spending the money are spine-cracking portions of Interstate 40 and rehabilitation of more than three dozen bridges in the Tulsa area.

State transportation officials say they plan to spend the money to fix a total of 337 miles of highways and to repair 88 bridges.

About 100 miles of Oklahoma’s interstate highway system are included in the plan, as are many of the bridges.
