The Tulsa Route 66 Commission was created by executive order in 2016 to support and continue efforts for promotion and development along historic Route 66 in Tulsa.
The citywide Commission is composed of 19 members. Five members are appointed by the mayor and five members represent council districts two, three, four, five and six. Each of these districts includes a segment of Route 66.
The other seats include the Chair of the Board of Directors for INCOG, Executive Director of the Route 66 Alliance, and a member at large. Two seats are selected by Tulsa Route 66 Main Street.
The Commission supports and assists all ongoing efforts locally and statewide with both public and private entities involved in Route 66 matters. Members also create and help implement specific strategies and plans to encourage economic development and promotion for Route 66.
