Interstate 10 project could disrupt travel between Arizona and California through next summer

A freeway pavement project could slow travel between Arizona and California through next summer, officials said.

Crews are replacing the top layer of asphalt and guardrails over 12 miles of Interstate 10 between Ehrenberg at the California-Arizona state line and Dome Rock Road (Milepost 12), according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

For worker and public safety, I-10 will be reduced to one lane in each direction at times until the project is completed in late summer 2027, ADOT said.

The restrictions could be necessary around the clock Monday through Friday but will be lifted weekends and holidays to minimize the impact on traffic.

When do Interstate 10 lane restrictions begin?

The first lane restrictions are set for 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 6 a.m. to noon Friday, and 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. next Monday.

The work zone speed limit will be reduced to 55 mph, and a 14-foot vehicle width restriction will be in effect.

Crews plan to replace guardrails during the day and do paving work at night. The project also includes extending pipe culverts, replacing signage and pavement markings, and completing other related work.

Motorists can stay up-to-date on the work and its impact through the project’s website or by signing up for ADOT emails.
