Several closures and lane restrictions will take place on Valley freeways for improvement projects this weekend (November 1-4), according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
Here is ADOT's Weekend Freeway Travel Advisory:
- Westbound Interstate 10 closed between 35th and 67th avenues in west Phoenix from 10 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday (Nov. 4) for work on the Loop 202 Congressman Ed Pastor Freeway (formerly South Mountain Freeway) interchange. Both Interstate 17 ramps to westbound I-10 at the “Stack” interchange closed. Westbound I-10 on-ramp at 27th Avenue also closed. Expect heavy traffic and delays.
