ADOT Traffic Alert – I-10 closed near downtown Phoenix this weekend (May 10-11) for APS power line project. PHOENIX – Drivers with travel plans through the Phoenix area this weekend (May 10-11) are urged to avoid a closure of Interstate 10 in the downtown area due to an Arizona Public Service Co. power line project. Westbound I-10 will be closed between the I-17 ‘Split’ near Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and Seventh Avenue while eastbound I-10 will be closed between the I-17 ‘Stack’ interchange and the Loop 202/State Route 51 interchange from 2 a.m. Saturday to 11 p.m. Sunday (May 11). The westbound Loop 202 and southbound SR 51 ramps to westbound I-10 also will be closed. Drivers, including those with travel plans in or out of Sky Harbor Airport, can expect heavy traffic congestion in areas approaching the I-10 closure. The Arizona Department of Transportation recommends drivers plan ahead, allow plenty of extra travel time and use alternate routes if at all possible. I-10 traffic will be detoured to Interstate 17 south and west of the downtown area, but heavy traffic delays can be expected. Updated information about the scheduled May 10-11 closure of I-10 in Phoenix for the APS power line project will be available on the ADOT Twitter feed (@ArizonaDOT), on the ADOT website azdot.gov and through the agency’s Traveler Information System az511.gov or by calling 5-1-1 in Arizona.
