Budget extra time through the area due to crash involving oversize load
Budget extra time through the area due to crash involving oversize load |
PHOENIX – Drivers using northbound Interstate 17 uphill between Black Canyon City and Sunset Point should budget extra travel time and watch for slowing traffic due to an extended lane closure caused by a crash involving oversize load, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation. The right lane has been closed at milepost 247 near Bumble Bee Road, about 3 miles north of Black Canyon City since a truck carrying a 70,000-pound beam overturned Saturday afternoon. Special equipment will be needed to remove the beam, and as a result a prolonged lane closure is expected. The lane closure is within the limits of ADOT’s I-17 Improvement Project that’s increasing capacity between Anthem Way and Sunset Point. Drivers are reminded that the speed limit within that project’s work zone is 65 mph. For more information about this project, please visit improvingi17.com. Real-time highway conditions are available on ADOT’s Arizona Traveler Information site at az511.gov, the AZ511 app and by calling 511. |

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to use the designated detours when there are closures on state highways.
