SEDONA — Motorists traveling on State Route 89A between Sedona and Flagstaff during evening hours should allow for extra travel time beginning Monday, December 5, as ADOT crews install fencing at Midgley Bridge located about two miles north of the city of Sedona.

Work to install fencing will involve overnight lane closures and alternating traffic over the bridge at milepost 376. The restriction will be in place from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Sundays through Fridays through Friday, December 23. If necessary, work will resume on Monday, December 26, and continue until complete.

The 10-foot-tall chain-link fencing attaches to the bridge’s railings. ADOT is installing the fencing in partnership with Sedona, the U.S. Forest Service and Coconino County to enhance public safety at the historic bridge over Oak Creek.

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