Travel to Broken Arrow

Travel by vehicle is the preferred option for traveling BA, Buses are still not up to par with most of the USA and run infrequently. That could change in 5 to 10 years with transit expansion plans. But lack of enthusiasm and interest in public transit poses a problem for Tulsa County.

  • From Tulsa International Airport: Take State Highway 11 east onto I-244 East. Then take US-169 South. From there you can either take the BA Expressway (State Highway 51) East & turn off on the exit you need, or continue on US-169 South. Broken Arrow exits are at every mile South of State 51 on US-169 until 91st street. If you pass 91st street it will take you 2 miles to the end of US-169 at Memorial Drive in Bixby (See From Bixby). When exiting US-169 be sure to turn East off the freeway for BA.
  • From Downtown Tulsa: Take State-51 (BA Expressway) East towards US-169. For North BA, continue on State-51 past US-169 & turn off on the exit you need. For South BA, get onto US-169 South from State-51. Broken Arrow exits are at every mile South of State-51 on US-169 until 91st street. When exiting US-169 be sure to turn East off the freeway for BA.
  • From Bixby: Follow any Street from 91st through 131st East from Memorial Drive until you hit Garnet Ave (roughly 2 miles).
  • From Coweeta: Take BA Expressway (State-51) West and turn off at one of several exits until US-169. Heading to South Broken Arrow from Coweeta? Take State-51 to US-169 and head South on US-169 form there. Broken Arrow exits are at every mile South of State 51 on US-169 until 91st street. When exiting US-169 be sure to turn East off the freeway for BA.

Get Around

All roads in Broken Arrow are aligned to the four directions (North, South, East, West)grid system, with 1 mile being recognized as the next major road, so it should be fairly easy to navigate. East/West streets are numbered, primary streets being identified by ending with "1" (E.G. 111th, 101st and 71st streets are primary streets, however 115th, 103rd and 79th are minor roads, mostly leading to houses). The larger the number of the East/West street and the farther South you are. The smaller the number of the East/West street and the farther North you are.
