Plan for Interstate 17 overnight lane restrictions between Coldwater Canyon Road and State Route 69 Aug. 29-Sept. 12

Drivers should allow extra travel time

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers who travel Interstate 17 to plan for overnight north- and southbound lane restrictions between Coldwater Canyon Road and State Route 69.

The following restrictions will occur overnight from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 29 through Sunday, Sept. 12:

• North- and southbound I-17 will be narrowed to one lane in each direction between Coldwater Canyon Road (exit 244) and the junction with SR 69 (exit 263).
• The speed limit will be reduced to 45 mph.
• A 14-foot vehicle width restriction will be in place.
• No weekend work is scheduled.                                       

The restrictions are needed for maintenance crews to apply a fog-seal treatment to the roadway, which protects and extends the life of the pavement.

ADOT advises drivers to slow down and use caution around personnel and equipment while pavement repairs are underway.
