I-10/I-8 interchange work continues south of Casa Grande



Interstate 8/Interstate 10 Traffic Interchange

    • Interstate 8 between Bianco Road and the junction of I-10 continues to have daily lane restrictions in both directions during the hours of 4 a.m. to 7 p.m. through mid-April for paving.

    • The speed limit has been reduced to 45 mph.



Interstate 8 Ramps at Thornton Road

    • The I-8 ramps at Thornton Road continue to have intermittent daily closures from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m.

    • Motorists should expect delays of up to 20 minutes.



The work is to allow the Arizona Department of Transportation to reconstruct the bridge barrier and improve drainage. Lane restrictions will be in effect for the duration of the project. The speed limit will be reduced to 45 mph. The work also includes new pipe extensions, cattle guards and lowering I-8 at Thornton Road to meet the new bridge height of 16 feet.



The $7.3 million project is expected to be completed by summer 2016.



Drivers are reminded to share the road, be cautious and slow down while traveling through the work zone.



ADOT works to inform the public about planned roadway restrictions, but there is a possibility that unscheduled closures or restrictions may occur. Weather can also affect a project schedule.



For more information, please call Paki Rico at 520-388-4233, or email prico@azdot.gov or visit the website at http://azdot.gov/I-8Bianco.
