US 93

INDEPENDENT NEWSMEDIA
PHOENIX – The latest project to divide US 93 into a four-lane highway between Phoenix and Nevada is underway.
This time, the work involves widening four miles between Wikieup and Interstate 40.
The $80.6 million project will improve the two-lane undivided highway between mileposts 106-110, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
Construction is expected to last into 2027 “with limited impact on motorists as most work activity will occur off of US 93,” ADOT officials stated in a release.
Over the next several weeks, crews will be clearing space for a work zone.
The project, which is 13 miles north of Wikieup, also includes:
Constructing two new bridges over Cane Springs Wash and removing the existing bridge at milepost 109.
Improving and/or installing drainage and sediment-control facilities, including culverts, pipes and ditches.
Reconstructing the intersection turnout at Upper Trout Creek Road.
