[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4108536, member: 14646"] Currently our driveway entrance off Hwy 16 is fairly narrow. Hwy 16 between Bristow and Drumright isn't necessarily busy but cars a trucks use every bit of the 65mph speed limit and then some. When heading West on 16 and making a right turn up our narrow drive it's tight and when I'm pulling one of our 16' equipment trailers or my 24' enclosed trailer, it can be a challenge to keep the right side trailer tires from dragging the ditch. Ditch is about 3' lower than the road surface. I want to extend the tinhorn with another 20-30 section of pipe on the East side of the driveway and properly backfill. This will allow a better approach when towing up our driveway as well as give the mail delivery guy a safe place to get off the highway to deliver our mail. Currently have to get it all through a PO Box in town because they have no way to get onto our property to deliver mail and they sure as hell won't get out of their delivery vehicle to stuff it in a mailbox. Must be drive up only, I guess. A couple people have told me if I do any work on extending my tinhorn or widening my drive I have to go through the county? If I understand correctly the driveway approach and tinhorn are on county land. Is some sort of permit or notification to the county needed if I do this work? [/QUOTE]
