Wrong way sign project to begin May 19 in southern Arizona
The Arizona Department of Transportation will begin a safety project to upgrade wrong way signs and pavement markings on several interstate ramps in southern Arizona starting Wednesday, May 19.
The project will include ramps on the following routes:
- Interstate 8 in Pinal County (State Route 84 to I-10)
- I-10 in Pinal, Pima and Cochise counties (Sacaton Rest Area to the New Mexico border)
- I-19 in Pima and Santa Cruz counties (Tucson to Nogales)
Most work will be completed on ramp shoulders, but short delays or ramp closures are possible in some locations. Interstate traffic will not be affected by the project.
Work is scheduled to extend through early 2022.
The work is part of an on-going statewide initiative to install new, more visible wrong way signs along freeways to get the attention of drivers who go the wrong direction on off-ramps or in travel lanes.
The project, which is paid for with federal highway safety funds, includes more of the white pavement arrows pointing in the correct direction of travel along many of the freeway exit ramps where the new wrong way sign upgrades have been made.
Drivers should proceed with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.
Schedules are subject to change based on weather and other unforeseen factors. For more information, please call the ADOT Bilingual Project Information Line at 855.712.8530 or go to azdot.gov/contact and select Projects from the drop-down menu.

State Route 366 (Swift Trail) repair project begins January 4, 2021
Motorists on State Route 366 (Swift Trail) near Safford between mileposts 118 and 140 should expect intermittent delays starting Monday, Jan. 4, while crews complete a roadway repair project.
Key elements of the project include:
- Removal of burned trees
- Repairs to the road surface in select locations
- Drainage repairs
- Box culvert replacements
- A chip seal on the paved portion of the highway
While work is underway, SR 366 will remain open (with typical seasonal restrictions). However, motorists should expect lane closures with delays of up to 30 minutes. Note: The contractor may work on two locations at a time, thus multiple 30 minute delays are possible. Signals or flaggers will be used to control traffic.
Crews expect to work primarily during weekdays, but some weekend work is possible. The work is scheduled to take up to two years.
The project is needed to complete repairs caused by the 2017 Frye Fire on Mount Graham.
Drivers should proceed with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.

Preliminary work on the west Willcox Interstate 10 bridge project begins March 23
Bridge over I-10 scheduled to close April 5
Preliminary work on an Interstate 10 bridge project at the west end of Willcox at Haskell Avenue and Taylor Road is scheduled to begin Tuesday, March 23.
Crews will begin mobilizing equipment and preparing the site for a bridge redecking project. Minor traffic delays are possible for the first two weeks of the project.
The bridge over I-10 is scheduled to close to all traffic on Monday, April 5.
The overall project is scheduled to be completed in three phases:
- Phase 1 from late March to mid-April - Mobilization and construction of a temporary traffic lane to facilitate the movement of eastbound I-10 traffic during scheduled weekend closures on I-10.
- Phase 2 from mid-April to late summer - Removal and replacement of the bridge deck
- Phase 3 from late summer to early autumn - Guardrail and pavement work and cleanup
Traffic Restrictions
The eastbound I-10 exit ramp to Haskell Avenue will remain open throughout the project to allow vehicles to enter Willcox from the west. The westbound I-10 entrance and exit ramps to and from Taylor Road are scheduled to remain open.
Starting in mid-April, for several weekends, I-10 will be diverted onto the exit ramps and then back onto the entrance ramps from 8 p.m. Fridays to 6 a.m. Mondays. The weekend closures will allow crews to safely remove and replace the existing bridge deck. Additional ramp restrictions may be required during weekend closures to safely move traffic.
Drivers should proceed with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.
For more information, go to the project website.
Schedules are subject to change based on weather and other unforeseen factors.

Plan for extended closure, detour on US 191 south of Willcox
ADOT crews repairing soil erosion under roadway
PHOENIX – Motorists should plan for an extended closure of US 191 south of Willcox while crews with the Arizona Department of Transportation work to repair soil erosion under the roadway.
The closure requires drivers to use a clearly marked local detour between mileposts 53.1 and 55.7. Motorists will use Birch, Cochise Stronghold and Dragoon roads while the closure is in place
This section of US 191 was closed Monday, July 5, when crews discovered soil erosion next to the roadway following heavy rainfall in the area. Maintenance crews have since found additional erosion under the highway and are developing repair plans.
The damage is a reminder that many factors, including wildfires and rainstorms, can trigger unplanned closures that will require repairs before a roadway can safely reopen to traffic. Drivers should get road conditions at AZ511.gov before traveling, or by checking with ADOT on Twitter, Facebook or the ADOT Alerts app.
POSTPONED: Expect intermittent delays on US 60 between Superior, Miami starting July 12 for utility work
Utility work within and adjacent to US 60 between Superior and Miami originally scheduled to begin Monday, July 12, has been postponed.
A new start date notice will be released before work begins.
When crews start installing the fiber optic lines, motorists will encounter intermittent delays for about two months.
Schedules are subject to change based on weather and other unforeseen factors.
