Weekend weather may alter Valley freeway work plans

Posted

A storm is expected to move into the Valley over Easter weekend, and it could affect projects planned for Interstate 10, state transportation officials said.

Here is what’s on tap for the weekend weather permitting:

  • Eastbound I-10 will be closed between Loop 202 and I-17 (Stack Interchange) from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday for pavement improvement work.

Northbound Loop 202 ramps to eastbound I-10 will be closed along with eastbound I-10 on-ramps at 79th, 75th and 67th avenues. Detours: 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, according to the Arizona Department of Transportatin. 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.

  • North- and southbound 32nd Street will be closed between I-10 and Elwood Street from 8 p.m. Friday to 4 a.m. Monday for ramp construction.

East- and westbound I-10 off-ramps and the westbound on-ramp at 32nd Street will be closed. Northbound 32nd Street will be open between Broadway Road and the eastbound I-10 on-ramp. Detour: Consider alternate routes including the westbound I-10 off-ramps at 40th or 24th streets and the eastbound off-ramp at 40th Street. Note: The eastbound I-10 off-ramp at 32nd Street will remain closed until June for reconstruction.

Real-time highway conditions are available on ADOT’s Arizona Traveler Information site at az511.gov, the az511 app or by calling 511.
