Tempe, Mesa Cardinals fans get roadwork reprieve for Sunday's kickoff

Posted

Westbound Interstate 10 will be closed between US 60 and State Route 143 from 10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 9, to 7 a.m. Sunday, Sept.11, as crews work on the new Broadway Road bridge.

The Arizona Department of Transportation announced that is opening westbound I-10 early on Sunday morning to ensure access to the Arizona Cardinals’ home opener against the Kansas City Chiefs at State Farm Stadium in Glendale.

Fans traveling to the stadium from the Southeast Valley or Southern Arizona can also use the Loop 202 South Mountain Freeway, according to ADOT.

The following ramps also will be closed:

• The ramps to westbound I-10 from westbound US 60.

• The westbound I-10 on-ramps at Elliot and Baseline roads.

• The westbound US 60 on-ramps at McClintock Drive, Rural Road and Mill Avenue.

ADOT suggests as detours:

  • Use eastbound Loop 202 or eastbound US 60 to northbound Loop 101 to westbound Loop 202 to access westbound I-10.
  • Drivers heading to the West Valley can bypass the work zone by using Loop 202 west and north to connect with I-10 at 59th Avenue.
  • Motorists who are traveling on westbound I-10 and US 60 to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport can use the Sky Harbor Boulevard entrance from Loop 202.

According to ADOT, once westbound I-10 reopens, the westbound I-10 ramp to eastbound US 60 will be closed for work zone set up. That may occur as early as 4 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 11.

The ramp will remain closed until 4 a.m. Monday, Sept. 12.

As a detour, use westbound I-10 to Broadway Road to eastbound I-10 to access US 60.

At the same time, the westbound I-10 on-ramp at Baseline Road will remain closed. Drivers can use the westbound I-10 on-ramp at 40th Street instead, according to ADOT.
