The Sapulpa Board of Adjustment has unanimously approved the construction of a new antenna that should greatly improve cellular reception for customers of multiple carriers in the downtown area.

The proposed route would stretch across 400 miles of the historic highway in Oklahoma and through downtown Sapulpa, starting at the intersection of Oak and Dewey.
