 Another Creek Turnpike expansion proposal , connecting it again to the Turner Turnpike in the west , but only extending it as far as the Muskogee Turnpike in the east , was put forward by Walters 's successor , Governor Frank Keating , in 1996 . This proposal , accompanied by a proposed extension to the Kilpatrick Turnpike in Oklahoma City , was to be funded by increasing tolls by 10 percent statewide in 1999 . Keating 's turnpike package , too , encountered trouble from the Legislative Bond Oversight Commission . The body unanimously voted on July 25 , 1996 , to postpone an up @-@ or @-@ down vote on the projects , which together carried a price tag of $ 525 million ( approximately $ 975 million in 2015 dollars ) , until more information was made available to its members . Keating declared the package dead in response to the commission 's action .
