SUPERIOR – The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the following restrictions as part of a bridge replacement project:
U.S. Highway 60 between Superior and Miami (mileposts 227-243) will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 24.
U.S. Highway 60 between Miami and Magma Mine Road (mileposts 231-243) will remain open for local traffic only.
Detour: Eastbound U.S. Highway 60 drivers use southbound State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77. Westbound U.S. Highway 60 drivers use southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 177. Due to the approximately 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning their travel for before 9 a.m. or after 2 p.m. The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior and Miami.
U.S. Highway 60 east of Superior, between mileposts 227-229, will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- and westbound travel from 5:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday, Sept. 22, Tuesday, Sept. 23, and Thursday, Sept. 25. Flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
Upcoming full closures
U.S. Highway 60 between Superior and Miami will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 30; Wednesday, Oct. 1; and Thursday, Oct. 2. A detour will be in place during closures.
