PHOENIX – A stretch of Interstate 10 in central Phoenix will be closed overnight Thursday for roadwork, state transportation officials said.

Westbound I-10 will be shut down between Seventh and 27th avenues from 10 p.m. Thursday to 4 a.m. Friday, the Arizona Department of Transportation said.

Crews will be performing maintenance work. The task will also close westbound ramps at 16th and Seventh streets.

ADOT’s suggested detour will take drivers off the freeway and on to either McDowell Road or Van Buren Street and then to 27th Avenue to get back on the interstate.

As always, the agency advises drivers to slow down around workers and equipment.
