PHOENIX — Construction is set to begin July 11 on a free-flowing interchange connecting US 93 and Interstate 40 in Kingman, the Arizona Department of Transportation said.

As one of several US 93 improvements planned, this $106 million project is planned to eliminate delays for passengers on the main route between Las Vegas and Arizona.

Currently, a traffic signal where Beale Street intersects with I-40 prompts traffic to stop. A new system-to-system interchange would feature ramps that allow traffic to flow freely.

These new ramps will create one mile of highway running northwest between I-40 and US 93.

Other project features include:

  • Widening more than one mile of I-40 in both directions between the new I-40/US 93 interchange and Stockton Hill Road
  • A merge lane on US 93 northbound
  • Widening/rehabilitating four bridges on I-40
  • Building sound walls along a portion of I-40 to the west of Stockton Hill Road
  • Constructing drainage features
