Westbound Interstate 10 at Red Rock (milepost 226), approximately 30 miles west of downtown Tucson, will be narrowed to one lane for approximately seven hours tonight as crews repair roadway damage on the middle lane of the highway, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
The work was originally planned for May 19, but had to be rescheduled.
Two lanes of the three-lane highway will remain closed from 7 p.m. Wednesday, June 3, to 2 a.m. Thursday, June 4, when the traffic restriction is expected to be lifted.
Motorists traveling overnight from Tucson to Phoenix are urged to allow extra travel time.
The westbound Red Rock off-ramp will remain open during the repair project. The westbound Red Rock on-ramp will be closed. For those motorists affected by the westbound on-ramp closure, ADOT recommends using the westbound I-10 frontage road from Red Rock to the Picacho on-ramp (milepost 219).
Drivers are reminded to share the road, be cautious and slow down while traveling through the work zone.
