PHOENIX — The Arizona Department of Transportation announced the expected freeway closures for the weekend of Nov. 11-14.
A section of the Loop 202 Red Mountain Freeway will be closed for a portion of the weekend for a freeway improvement project. As always, ADOT recommends taking extra time to plan ahead and consider alternate routes.
• Eastbound Loop 202 (Red Mountain Freeway) closed between Interstate 10 and 44th Street in Phoenix from 9 p.m. Friday to 11 p.m. Saturday (Nov. 12) for resurfacing. All I-10 ramps to eastbound Loop 202 at the State Route 51 “Mini-Stack” interchange closed. Southbound SR 51 ramp to eastbound Loop 202 will remain open but traffic will need to exit at 32nd Street and use alternate routes.
DETOUR: Consider using I-10 in either direction to northbound SR 143 (Hohokam Expressway) to access Loop 202. I-10 traffic also can connect with northbound SR 51 and exit to eastbound Thomas Road before using local streets to reach eastbound Loop 202 beyond the closure at 44th Street.
Additional freeway-restriction information will be posted at azdot.gov, under ADOT News.
