Pavement sealing closes portion of SR 51

Posted

PHOENIX – A stretch of State Route 51 in Phoenix is scheduled to be closed for part of the weekend while crews apply pavement sealant along the freeway, state transportation officials said Thursday.

Northbound SR 51 will be closed between the Interstate 10 “Mini-Stack” interchange and Loop 101 starting at 9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 20.

Drivers can consider using westbound I-10 to northbound I-17 as an alternate route to reach eastbound Loop 10, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation. 

Crews will work to reopen sections of the northbound lanes in phases on Saturday, Sept. 21, as the pavement sealant dries and new lane striping is placed along the freeway, ADOT officials said.

All work is scheduled to be completed by 9 p.m. Saturday.

 The southbound side of the freeway is scheduled to be closed for sealant work  over the Sept. 27-28 weekend.
