The widening project on US 93, north of Wickenburg, is almost complete and crews will switch northbound traffic back onto the northbound lanes between mileposts 185 and 190, tomorrow (Nov. 20) as part of a $12 million widening project.

Crews are scheduled to fully open the southbound lanes on Monday (Nov. 23) in the late afternoon. Drivers may be stopped intermittently for up to 15 minutes during the traffic switch to provide a safe work zone for construction personnel.

ADOT began this expansion project in February to widen US 93 between State Route 71 and State Route 89 which included the reconstruction of the highway into four lanes and will be fully completed by the spring of 2016 when crews return for final paving operations.

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 and comply with the reduced speed limit.
