Intermittent daytime lane restrictions on US60 east of Superior begin May 6

Upcoming full closure of US60 begins May 15; drivers can expect long detour

Posted

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for frequent intermittent daytime lane restrictions lasting approximately 15 minutes on US60 east of Superior, between milepost 227-231, for construction activities as the US60, Queen Creek and Waterfall Canyon Bridges Replacement Project begins.

Drivers should prepared for:

  • Onsite flaggers and a pilot car to direct drivers through the work zone.
  • A 14-foot vehicle width restriction to be in place. Oversize loads may be accommodated with advance notice.
  • The speed limit will be reduced in the work zone.

Starting May 15, full closures of US60 will begin between Superior and Miami 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for rock blasting. During the full closures of US60, traffic will be detoured on state routes 77 and 177. Due to the roughly 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning travel before 9 a.m. and after 2 p.m.

For more information about this project and to sign up for notifications about this project, go to azdot.gov/US60QueenCreekBridgeProject.

Drivers should allow extra travel time and be prepared to slow down, use caution and merge safely when approaching and traveling through highway work zones.
