Motorists traveling on State
Route 77 near Winkelman will encounter travel delays Tuesday, Oct. 18, and
Wednesday, Oct. 19, while the Arizona Department of Transportation paves a
section of the highway.
Paving work will be done from
7 a.m. until 6 p.m. both days, and a pilot
vehicle will escort traffic in both directions through a six-mile closure from
the junction with State Route 177 to milepost 145 near Christmas Mine Road. Motorists should plan
for delays of up to 15 minutes.
The work is part of a $2.6
million project to improve the section of highway north of Winkelman.
Drivers should
proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down and watch for
construction equipment and personnel.
ADOT works to
inform the public about planned highway restrictions, but it’s possible that
unscheduled closures or restrictions might occur because of weather or other
factors. For the latest highway conditions around the state, visit the ADOT
Traveler Information Center at www.az511.gov or call 511, except while driving.
For more information about this
project, please call C.T. Revere, ADOT Senior Community Relations Officer, at
1.520.705.3574 or email at crevere@azdot.gov.
