FLAGSTAFF/CAMERON — Restrictions for both north- and southbound travel on US 89 just south of Gray Mountain between Flagstaff and Cameron (milepost 452 to 455) will begin daily, starting on Tuesday (July 21) to Saturday (July 25) from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. The restriction will accommodate installation of temporary concrete barriers and shoulder work in preparation for a $2.8 million roadway improvement project.

The improvement project includes widening of US 89 through the project area, installation of a new passing lane for northbound travel, drainage extensions and new pavement resurfacing. This project is scheduled to be constructed in two phases, with the first phase to be completed mid-December, 2015.

During this phase of construction, lane restrictions can be anticipated, however one lane of travel in both directions will be allowed during most of the construction schedule. Please observe reduced speed limits and allow for extra travel time while traveling through the work zone.
