SR 88, Tomahawk Road intersection closes for 7 weeks

Posted

The intersection of State Route 88 and Tomahawk Road in Apache Junction will close for approximately seven weeks starting April 17 for a drainage improvement project.


Drivers who normally use the intersection should allow extra travel time and plan on using suggested detour routes, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

Crews will install a drainage culvert at the SR 88/Tomahawk Road intersection, and the closure is needed for trench work taking place at the intersection.

The purpose of the culvert is to reduce roadway flooding, state transportation officials said.

Drivers traveling northeast on SR 88 can detour around the closure by using eastbound Superstition Boulevard, northbound Goldfield Road and westbound Lost Dutchman Boulevard, according to ADOT.

Motorists approaching the closure while traveling southwest on SR 88 can detour west on Lost Dutchman Boulevard and south on Idaho Road.
