CAMP VERDE — In preparation for widening State Route 260 in Camp Verde between Interstate 17 and Thousand Trails Road (mileposts 209 to 218), utility work will be ongoing for the next five months. Crews are relocating utility lines to make room for the four-lane divided roadway that is set to begin construction next spring.

Utility relocation requires intermittent work along shoulders and trucks entering and exiting the roadway. Drivers are encouraged to use extra caution when traveling through work zones between 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays.

Drivers should proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down and watch for construction equipment and personnel.

ADOT works to inform the public about planned highway restrictions, but it’s possible that unscheduled closures or restrictions might occur because of weather or other factors.
