Lane Restriction at Night

The 42-inch storm drain pipe will be installed between Tuesday, Feb. 16, and Thursday, Feb. 18, between Canyon Drive and Morgan Wash. Temporary pavement has been added toward the uphill wall to provide the needed work zone for storm drain installation. Work that will necessitate restricting traffic to one lane will occur between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. Flaggers will direct traffic in this area.

Canyon Drive

Excavation for the footer of the northern portion of the uphill wall between Canyon Drive and the soil nail wall continues day and night until complete.

Wall construction started again Tuesday, Feb. 16. Short duration traffic restrictions to one lane may be necessary for up to 10-minutes during wall form setting, and for equipment and truck access to the work area during the day. Please plan travels accordingly.

Oak Creek Bridge

Crews are scheduled Tuesday, Feb. 16, to begin building the wall between the pedestrian and roadway bridges on the east bank, and work on Abutment 2 on the west bank. Bridge activities may require equipment and material hauling that could cause minor traffic delays.

Changes to construction plans can happen frequently due to weather, equipment and personnel availability.

Intermittent lane closures, with short delays, may not always be known in advance.
