The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for a closure and lane restrictions on the Two Guns and Meteor Crater bridges over Interstate 40 starting Monday, Oct. 18, as work continues on the rehabilitation project.

The following restrictions will be in place from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 18, through Wednesday, Oct. 20, at Two Guns Bridge:

  • Two Guns Bridge over I-40 will be closed. Motorists should use the following detour routes:

    • Detour from westbound I-40 to southbound Two Guns Road: Exit at Buffalo Range Road, then re-enter the highway eastbound and exit at Two Guns Road.

The following restrictions are in place from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 18, Wednesday, Oct. 20, and Thursday, Oct. 21, at Meteor Crater Bridge:

  • Meteor Crater Bridge over I-40 will be reduced to one lane only of alternating north- and southbound travel.
