I-10 and Ina Road construction continues; Ina Road remains open through early 2017

The Interstate 10, Ina Road Traffic Interchange project in Marana, north of Tucson, continues its first phase of construction, anticipated to last through early 2017. Ina Road will remain open during this phase. In addition, major utility work will also begin and continue throughout this phase. The work is scheduled as follows:

Interstate 10

• Westbound I-10, north of Ina Road will be reduced to one lane beginning 8 p.m. Wednesday (Aug. 3) through 5 a.m.Thursday (Aug. 4) to set temporary concrete barrier (instead of Thursday night through Friday morning as previously announced.)
   
  Interstate 10 Frontage Road
  

• The westbound I-10 frontage road between Ina Road and Cortaro Road is closed around the clock through the end of the year for reconstruction to accommodate the traffic detour when Ina Road closes in early 2017.
  
• The eastbound I-10 frontage road, north of Starcommerce Way, is reduced to one lane around the clock through the fall to accommodate construction of the new frontage road.
  
• The eastbound I-10 frontage road, south of Starcommerce Way, to Ina Road may have intermittent lane restrictions daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the month of August for utility work.
  
• Access to all businesses along the eastbound frontage road will be maintained.
  

• Interstate 10 and all ramps remain open in both directions during the work.
  
• Traffic control signs will guide drivers through the work zone.
   
  Ina Road
  

• Ina Road will have left-turn lane restrictions in both directions at Camino de Oeste and at Camino de la Cruz (on eastbound Ina Road only) around the clock beginning late August for approximately three months for utility line work.
   
  Massingale Road
  

• Massingale Road is closed around the clock at the westbound I-10 frontage road for the reconstruction of the frontage road.
  
• Drivers may use Camino de Oeste as an alternate route.
  
  The reconstruction project to fully reconstruct the interchange will improve traffic operations on I-10 and on the Ina Road traffic interchange. The project consists of widening I-10 to accommodate an additional lane in each direction and Ina Road from Silverbell Road to Camino de la Cruz.
  
  ADOT works to inform the public about planned roadway restrictions, but there is a possibility that unscheduled closures or restrictions may occur due to weather or equipment issues.
  
  Drivers are reminded to share the road, be cautious, and slow down while traveling through the work zone.
  
  Managed by ADOT, this project is funded by the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County. The voter-approved, $2.1 billion RTA plan will be implemented through 2026. Details about the full plan are available at www.RTAmobility.com.
