Yes, this looks good. I can understand why you might not want such a short stretch of freeway, such as the US 70 Bypass around Durant marked as motorway, but the longer stretch of freeway on US 69/US 75 between US 70 Bypass and OK-22 is marked accordingly between those interchanges.

I decided to upgrade the access-controlled portion of the US 70 bypass around Durant to freeway/motorway, excluding the Super Two section because I'm not sure if Super Twos qualify as freeway/motorway. Again, if this doesn't qualify as freeway/motorway, please revert these changes.

That said, I've driven the portion I've upgraded to freeway/motorway, and it doesn't have any at-grade interchanges between US 70 Bypass and OK-22, all cross streets either go over or under US 75/US 69. I thought this qualified the road as freeway/motorway, so I upgraded the section. Plus, this US 75/US 69 corridor is rumored to be future Interstate 45 once all the at-grade intersections are either removed or bypassed. Granted, Caldera, Tushka, Atoka, Kiowa, Savanna, and McAlester would all need to be bypassed, so I figured it would be a good idea to mark as freeway/motorway all the stretches that were already limited access. That said, if this doesn't qualify for such a designation, please revert my changes.

Oops, I meant just north of Caddo (I am very aware of the Caddo Highway at-grade interchange), north of Caldera is where the freeway resumes.

I have only upgraded it from US 70 Bypass to Cadoo because I know there are non-freeway and non-access controlled sections north and south of there, as through Calera and around the Choctaw Casino (which is probably why that stretch isn't freeway - that casino probably loves stopping traffic) and just north of Calera (I am very aware of the Caddo Highway at-grade interchange).

I just published a change to shorten the freeway/motorway designation of northbound US 75/US 69 to the end of the last northbound exit, Leavenworth Trail. This should fix the issue.
