Eastbound Interstate 10 will be closed between Loop 202 and Interstate 10 from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday for pavement improvement work, state transportation officials said Thursday.

Northbound Loop 202 ramps to eastbound I-10 will be closed along with eastbound I-10 on-ramps at 79th, 75th and 67th avenues.

Eastbound I-10 traffic can detour to southbound/eastbound Loop 202 and connect with I-10 (toward Tucson) near Chandler Boulevard in the Ahwatukee area, Arizona Department of Transportation officials said.

Drivers on eastbound I-10 also can consider exiting ahead of the closure and using local routes, including McDowell and Thomas roads north of I-10 or Van Buren Street and Buckeye Road south of I-10, to reach I-17.

 I-10 drivers also can consider detouring on northbound Loop 101 to reach I-17 in north Phoenix, according to ADOT.
