The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the following restrictions for blasting operations as part of a bridge replacement project:
- US 60 east of Superior, between mileposts 227-229, will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- and westbound travel from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, May 19. Flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
- US 60 between Superior and Miami (mileposts 227-243) will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, May 20, Wednesday, May 21, and Thursday, May 22.
- Flagging operations will be in effect before and after the full closures.
- US 60 between Miami and Magma Mine Road (mileposts 231-243) will remain open for local traffic only.
Detour: Eastbound US 60 drivers use southbound State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77. Westbound US 60 drivers use southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 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. The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior and Miami.

Upcoming full closures and flagging operations:
- Lane restrictions with alternating east- and westbound travel on US 60 east of Superior have been cancelled for Monday, May 26, in honor of Memorial Day. There will be no closure of US 60 between Superior and Miami on Tuesday, May 27.
- US 60 between Superior and Miami will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, May 28, and Thursday, May 29. Flagging operations will be in effect before and after the full closures.
