The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the restrictions for blasting operations as part of a bridge replacement project on U.S. Highway 60 east of Superior.
Between mileposts 227-229 the road will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- and west-bound travel from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, April 14. Flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
US60 between Superior and Miami (mileposts 227-243) will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, April 15, Wednesday, April 16, and Thursday, April 17.
Flagging operations will be in effect before and after the full closures.
US60 between Miami and Magma Mine Road (mileposts 231-243) will remain open for local traffic only.
Detour: Eastbound US60 drivers use southbound State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77. Westbound US60 drivers use southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 177. Due to the roughly 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning travel before 9 a.m. and after 2 p.m. The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior and Miami.
Upcoming full closures and flagging operations:
