Expect daytime lane restrictions on US 160 in far northeastern Arizona beginning Tuesday, Aug. 4, for erosion control work

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to expect lane restrictions on US 160 near Mexican Water in far Northeastern Arizona on Tuesday, Aug. 4, as work begins on erosion control.

Drivers should expect the following restrictions weekdays from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.:

• US 160 will be reduced to one lane only with alternating east- and westbound travel between mileposts 439 and 440.
• Onsite flaggers will direct traffic through the work zone.
• Drivers need to be prepared to make frequent stops when approaching and driving through the work zone and use caution around construction personnel and equipment while the restrictions are in place. 
• Restrictions will be lifted each day after work hours. No work is scheduled on weekends.

This work, which is part of the 24-mile long pavement rehabilitation project between the communities of Dennehotso and Mexican Water, is scheduled to be completed by early September.
