Sedona AZ (August 26, 2014) – Overnight paving work on AZ Interstate 17 (I-17) southbound of State Route 169 continues this week through the end of September.
Daytime paving work will continue in the northbound and southbound directions on I-17 between the State Route 169 junction and the Dugas/Orme exit (mileposts 268 to 279).
As weather permits, drivers can expect a single lane restriction Sunday through Thursday nights between 8 p.m. and 10 a.m. through September 30, 2014, as crews finalize paving, striping and seeding operations.
Some daytime lane restrictions are expected Monday through Thursday between 5 a.m. and 7 p.m. through the work zone as ideal weather conditions exist for rubberized asphalt.
The work zone will be clearly marked by temporary barricades and signage. ADOT advises drivers to allow additional time to reach their destinations and to proceed through the work zone with caution, comply with the reduced speed limit, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.

Labor Day & Our Arizona Veterans Highway,
As you travel our Arizona Veterans Highway (I-17) this weekend, take the time to notice all of the trash in the median and on the shoulders and ask this question, “How does the trash you see reflect the care and respect that should shown for our Arizona veterans and their “memorial highways?”
I would also like you to take notice of the type of litter, to include broken, discarded and abandon items left by ADOT and ADOT sub-contractors.
Our Arizona residents should be outraged at the amount of trash on all of our highways, and how it reflects on the image and economy of Arizona.
