PHOENIX – Several freeway projects will get underway Friday night and continue until Monday morning, state transportation officials said.
Closures of Interstate 10, US 60 and Loop 101 are scheduled, and Interstate 17 will be narrowed during mostly overnight hours in north Phoenix. Here is what drivers can expect Friday night through early Monday, Oct. 11-13:
Eastbound I-10 will be closed between State Route 143 and Ray Road from 10 p.m. Friday to 4 a.m. Monday for paving and bridge work as part of the Broadway Curve improvement project.
The southbound I-17 ramp to eastbound I-10 at the “Split” interchange near Sky Harbor Airport also will be closed as will the southbound SR 143 ramp to eastbound I-10. Also: Westbound I-10 ramps to eastbound US 60 and northbound SR 143 will be closed. Detours: Drivers can consider using eastbound Loop 202 to southbound Loop 101 and Loop 202 in the Chandler area to reach eastbound I-10 beyond the closure. Travelers on I-10 in the West Valley can consider using southbound/eastbound Loop 202 to avoid the closure. Note: Most ramp closures will start at 8 p.m. Friday. While the westbound I-10 ramps to eastbound US 60 and northbound SR 143 are closed, ADOT officials suggest using eastbound Loop 202 in Chandler to northbound Loop 101 to reach eastbound US 60 or to reach eastbound Loop 202 in Tempe.

Northbound Loop 101 will be closed between I-10 and Thunderbird Road in the West Valley from 9 p.m. Friday to 1 p.m. Saturday for pavement sealing.

Southbound Loop 101 will be closed between Thunderbird Road and I-10 from 9 p.m. Saturday to 1 p.m. Sunday for pavement sealing.
Detour: Consider using southbound 91st or 99th avenues. Note: Crews plan to reopen southbound Loop 101 in sections as the work progresses.
