One freeway closure is planned for this weekend by the Arizona Department of Transportation.
Westbound Loop 303 will be closed between Interstate 17 and Lake Pleasant Parkway from 8 p.m. Friday, April 7, through 5 a.m. Monday, April 10, for the construction of a new interchange.
ADOT officials said I-17 on- and off-ramps at Loop 303 will remain open with access available to and from Sonoran Desert Drive east of I-17.
Drivers should consider a detour, using westbound SR 74 to southbound Lake Pleasant Parkway to reach westbound Loop 303 beyond the closure, according to ADOT.
