WILLCOX – The bridge over Interstate 10 connecting Haskell Avenue and Taylor Road in Willcox will close to all traffic starting Monday, April 5, as part of a project to replace the bridge deck. In addition, the ramp from Taylor Road and Haskell Avenue to eastbound Interstate 10 will also close on April 5.

Both closures are expected to extend into early autumn.

Crews are currently constructing a temporary traffic lane to facilitate eastbound I-10 traffic during weekend closures to safely complete key elements of the project.

The eastbound I-10 exit ramp to Haskell Avenue will remain open throughout the project to allow vehicles to enter Willcox from the west. The westbound I-10 entrance and exit ramps to and from Taylor Road are also scheduled to remain open.

Drivers should proceed with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.
