Valley drivers received a break from freeway work last weekend for the Super Bowl and Phoenix Open, but that ends tonight.

Transportation officials have scheduled several projects from Friday night, Feb. 17, until Monday morning, Feb. 20, that will require closures or lane restrictions.

• Northbound Interstate 17 will be closed between Thunderbird Road and Union Hills Drive in north Phoenix from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday for pavement improvement.

Northbound I-17 on-ramps at Northern, Dunlap and Peoria avenues and Cactus Road will be closed. Northbound I-17 ramps to east- and westbound Loop 101 also will be closed. Detour: Consider using northbound SR 51 and westbound Loop 101 as an alternate freeway route to reach I-17 beyond the closure. Northbound I-17 drivers also can consider exiting ahead of the closure and using northbound 19th or 35th avenues to access Loop 101 or connect with I-17 beyond the closure, including using Deer Valley Road, Arizona Department of Transportation officials said.

• Eastbound US 60 will be closed between Higley Road and Loop 202 from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday for a pavement improvement project. 

Eastbound US 60 on-ramps at Val Vista Drive and Greenfield Road will be closed. Detour: Consider using eastbound Loop 202 as alternate routes. Eastbound US 60 drivers can consider exiting ahead of the closure and using eastbound Baseline Road or Southern Avenue to travel beyond the closure.

• Eastbound I-10 closed between US 60 and Loop 202 from 10 p.m. Friday to 10 p.m. Saturday for construction. 

Westbound I-10 also will narrowed to two lanes near Broadway Road, and the westbound US 60 ramp to eastbound I-10 will be closed. The eastbound I-10 on-ramp at Broadway Road will be closed as will the eastbound US 60 off- and on-ramps at Mill Avenue. Both HOV ramps between I-10 and US 60 will be closed.

Detour: Consider using eastbound Loop 202 starting at the I-10/SR 51 “Mini-Stack” to southbound Loop 101 in Tempe to westbound Loop 202 in Chandler. Eastbound I-10 drivers detouring onto eastbound US 60 also can use southbound Loop 101 to westbound Loop 202 in the Chandler area, ADOT advises. Drivers in the West Valley can use southbound/eastbound Loop 202 to reach I-10 beyond the closure.

 Also: Westbound I-10 will be narrowed to three lanes near Chandler Blvd and Guadalupe Road closed in both directions approaching I-10 from 10 p.m. Friday to 10 p.m. Saturday. 

• Westbound Loop 303 will be closed between I-17 and Lake Pleasant Parkway from 4 a.m. Saturday to 7 p.m. Sunday for new interchange construction.

I-17 ramps at Loop 303 will remain open (access to eastbound Sonoran Desert Drive available). Detour: From I-17, consider using westbound SR 74 to southbound Lake Pleasant Parkway to reach westbound/southbound Loop 303 beyond the closure.

• Westbound I-10 will be narrowed to one lane overnight between Miller Road and Palo Verde Road (west of SR 85) from 9 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Saturday for a widening project.

Note: The westbound I-10 ramp to southbound SR 85 will be closed from 1 a.m. to 4 a.m. Saturday. In addition, the northbound SR 85 ramp to westbound I-10 is scheduled to be closed for several weeks from 9 p.m. Sunday to 5 a.m. Monday, March 13 for reconstruction work. Detours will be in place, according to ADOT.
