Long-term I-10 ramp closure begins this weekend

Posted

The eastbound Interstate 10 off-ramp at 48th Street will close at 10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 9, and remain so until later this year, state transportation officials said.

Drivers should use the eastbound I-10 off-ramp at Broadway or Baseline roads instead, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

In addition, northbound 48th Street will close between Broadway Road and I-10 at 8 p.m. Friday for pavement reconstruction, and the work is expected to last into September. Southbound 48th Street will close between I-10 and Broadway Road from 8 p.m. Friday to 4 a.m. Monday, Aug. 12.

Northbound 48th Street detours:

• From 10 p.m. Friday until 4 a.m. Monday, drivers should use westbound Broadway Road to northbound 40th Street to eastbound University Drive to reach northbound State Route 143.

• Beginning 4 a.m. Monday, use westbound Broadway Road to northbound 40th Street to eastbound I-10 and exit onto the new eastbound I-10 off-ramp at Broadway Road to reach 48th Street north of the closure.

Southbound 48th Street detour: Use westbound I-10 to southbound 32nd Street to eastbound Broadway Road to reach 48th Street south of the closure.

The work is linked to the Broadway Curve improvement project.
