Arizona US 89 Improvement Project Begins

Sedona AZ (June 2, 2015)Motorists traveling on AZ US 89 between Cameron and Page should allow for extra travel time as the Arizona Department of Transportation makes improvements to a seven-mile stretch of roadway from Gray Spot Wash to North Red Hill (mileposts 510-517), just south of the US 89/US 89A junction near Bitter Springs.

Beginning on Monday, June 1, 2015, the two lane highway will be reduced to one lane and traffic will alternate through the work zone with the aid of a pilot car. During the one lane restriction, delays of up to 30 minutes are possible.

In addition to resurfacing the pavement throughout the entire project length, ADOT will construct new passing lanes for north- and southbound travel (mileposts 514-515), widen the shoulders and reinforce bank protection at Tanner Wash.

The $6.9 million improvement project in Coconino County is scheduled to be completed this fall.

Hours of operation are Monday through Friday from early morning hours to sunset. No nighttime, weekend or holiday construction is anticipated.

ADOT advises drivers to proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.

If traveling with pets, carry potable water and a leash for unexpected travel delays. Don’t forget poop bags!
