Sedona AZ (June 7, 2013) – The Arizona Department of Transportation is working on the final phase of a project to reconstruct the Interstate 17 traffic interchange at Munds Park, approximately 20 miles south of Flagstaff.
Drivers can expect lane and ramp restrictions when paving begins Saturday, June 8, and continues Monday through Saturday, June 15. 2013.
During paving the following restrictions will be in place:
Southbound I-17 right-lane closure from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday (June 8)
Intermittent off- and on-ramp closures from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday (June 8)
North and southbound I-17 lane closures Monday-Saturday, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. (June 10-15)
Intermittent off- and on-ramp closures Monday-Saturday, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. (June 10-15)
The $10 million improvement project included reconstructing the southbound and northbound AZ I-17 bridges and ramps, and the realignment of Pinewood Boulevard beneath I-17.
ADOT replaced two 25-foot long bridges that were built in 1958 and constructed two new 100-foot long bridges. The new interchange will provide room for future widening of I-17 and will enhance safety for drivers and pedestrians.
