The closure of 107th Avenue south of Northern Avenue has been extended due to unexpected utility conflicts in the construction area.

Initially, the closure had been planned through Aug. 3, but the road is now scheduled to reopen at 6 a.m. Monday, Aug. 17.

That same day, traffic on Northern Avenue will shift as construction moves into its next phase. The south side of Northern Avenue will reopen with one lane in each direction, while crews begin work on the north side of the roadway and westbound lanes.

Construction on the Northern Parkway Corridor project is nearing the halfway point. Drivers should continue to expect restrictions and allow extra travel time through the area. Work typically takes place Monday through Friday from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Weekend and limited overnight work may also be needed.

Construction on this segment of the Northern Parkway Corridor started in late February 2026 and will continue for about 12 months, with completion anticipated in early 2027.

Over the last decade, the Maricopa County Department of Transportation in partnership with area transportation and municipal partners, have worked on improving Northern Parkway between Loop 303 in Glendale, to US 60 in Peoria. This roadway corridor has undergone a series of projects designed to provide better transportation for the area’s existing and future traffic needs.

Schedules are subject to change due to weather, equipment issues or other unexpected conditions.
