Night work begins on roundabout on US 93 at Wickenburg Ranch next week

adot-logo-03aWork on the new roundabout on US 93 north of Wickenburg continues and crews will begin night work next week as part of the project at Wickenburg Ranch.

An intermittent single-lane restriction will be in effect overnight from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. Wednesday and Thursday, Oct. 22 and 23. Flaggers will direct traffic in alternating directions using the single lane that is open and with delays of up to 15 minutes. The speed limit will be reduced to 45 mph.

To maximize resources and complete the project quickly, crews are working seven days a week with day and night work for the next three months. Work hours during the day are 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. with intermittent night work 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. Sunday to Thursday. A 12-foot width restriction and a shoulder closure will be in effect for the duration of the project.

The work zone will be clearly marked by temporary barricades and signage. ADOT advises drivers to allow additional time to reach their destinations and to proceed through the work zone with caution, comply with the reduced speed limit, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.
