US 60 detour map
The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for the following restrictions for blasting operations as part of a bridge replacement project:
US 60 east of Superior, between mileposts 227-229, will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- & westbound travel from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, March 3. Flaggers & a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
US 60 between Superior & Miami (mileposts 227-243) will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, March 4, Wednesday, March 5, & Thursday, March 6.
Flagging operations will be in effect before & after the full closures.
US 60 between Miami & Magma Mine Road (mileposts 231-243) will remain open for local traffic only.
Detour: Eastbound US 60 drivers use southbound State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77. Westbound US 60 drivers use southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 177. Due to the roughly 75-mile length of this detour, drivers may want to consider planning travel before 9 a.m. & after 2 p.m. The detour is estimated to add an additional hour for trips between Superior & Miami.
Upcoming full closures & flagging operations:
US 60 east of Superior will be reduced to one lane with alternating east- & westbound travel from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, March 10. Flaggers & a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
US 60 between Superior & Miami will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, March 11, Wednesday, March 12, and Thursday, March 13. Flagging operations will be in effect before & after the full closures.
Schedules are subject to change based on weather & other unforeseen factors. Lane restrictions, speed reductions & a 12-foot vehicle width restriction will be in place for the duration of the project. Oversize loads may be accommodated with advance notice.
Drivers should allow extra travel time, use caution, be prepared to slow down and merge safely when approaching and traveling through all work zones.
