ROUTE 66 - OVERHOLSER BRIDGE
Old Route 66 went west out of Oklahoma City on what is now the 39th Street Expressway. Just west of Bethany OK is the Lake Overholser Bridge. It is no longer used, but you can park nearby and walk out onto the bridge. These photos were taken on a chilly January afternoon.
