Interstate 40 ramp closures in place between Parks and Williams in northern Arizona

 

Drivers in northern Arizona are advised to plan for travel delays because of traffic realignment and ramp closures at Garland Prairie and Pittman Valley roads. Crews are repairing 17 miles of pavement on I-40 between Parks and Williams. The project also includes making bridge deck repairs at Garland Prairie and Pittman Valley roads.

 

Beginning Friday, May 4, traffic will be detoured onto temporary crossovers between Garland Prairie and Pittman Valley roads while crews begin to reconstruct the I-40 travel lanes. Through July, the westbound I-40 on- and off-ramps at Garland Prairie and Pittman Valley roads will be closed and traffic is being detoured to the Parks and Williams exits. Drivers must follow signed detour routes.

 

This project is being completed in two phases. Work will occur on westbound I-40 between Garland Prairie and Pittman Valley roads first, then move to eastbound I-40 in the same area in early summer.  Construction will pause for the winter season and is scheduled to resume in spring 2019 for additional paving, bridge and intersection work. The project is scheduled for completion in late 2019.

 

What to expect

  • Crews are scheduled to work Mondays through Fridays from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m.
  • Drivers are advised to plan for slow traffic, follow the reduced speed limit and allow extra travel time
  • One lane will remain open in each direction throughout construction
