The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the full closure of U.S. Highway 60 between Superior and Miami, mileposts 227-243, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, June 19, and Thursday, June 20, for blasting operations related to the US60, Queen Creek and Waterfall Canyon Bridges Replacement Project.
US60 between Miami and Magma Mine Road, near milepost 231, will remain open for local traffic only, according to a release.
For a detour, eastbound US60 drivers will use southbound State Route 177 through Winkleman to northbound SR 77. Westbound US60 drivers will use southbound SR 77 through Winkleman to northbound SR 177.
Due to the roughly 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning travel before 9 a.m. and after 2 p.m., the release states.
The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior and Miami.
Motorists should plan for lane restrictions and speed reductions in the work zone and a 12-foot vehicle width restriction to be in place for the duration of the project. Oversize loads may be accommodated with advance notice.
Drivers should allow extra travel time and be prepared to slow down, use caution and merge safely when approaching and traveling through highway work zones.
