Travel restrictions scheduled this week on I-10 east of Tucson

Motorists traveling on Interstate 10 east of Tucson will encounter lane closures this week while the Arizona Department of Transportation prepares to begin work to improve segments of the highway in Pima and Cochise counties.

The following restrictions will be in effect in the coming days:

  • On Tuesday (Sept. 29) eastbound I-10 will be reduced to one lane at Davidson Canyon, located about 20 miles east of downtown Tucson between mileposts 282 and 284
  • On Wednesday (Sept. 30) I-10 will be reduced to one lane in each direction near the Mescal Road/J-Six Ranch exit (Exit 297) in western Cochise County
  • On Thursday (Oct. 1) I-10 will be reduced to one lane in each direction near the Marsh Station traffic interchange (Exit 291) in eastern Pima County

The restrictions each day will be in effect from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. and the posted speed limit within the restricted area will be reduced to 55 mph.

ADOT advises drivers to proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.

ADOT works to inform the public about planned highway restrictions, but there is a possibility that unscheduled closures or restrictions may occur. Weather can also affect a project schedule. To stay up-to-date with the latest highway conditions around the state, visit the ADOT Traveler Information Center atwww.az511.gov or call 511.
