Joe Heller, our resident engineer on a big project getting underway in the North Valley, joins On the Road With ADOT this week to explain what's coming over the next two and a half years, including a flyover ramp connecting northbound I-17 with Loop 303.
A major component of the work will be building the direct ramps to create the freeway-to-freeway interchange. When completed over the next two-and-a-half years, drivers will skip the traffic signals at the current Loop 303/I-17 diamond interchange.
Engineers at ADOT play a vital role in building and maintaining Arizona’s roads. During National Engineers Week, Feb. 22-28, we’re celebrating engineers and the work they do to keep Arizona moving.
Two-way traffic is being restored in stages along Liberty Lane, where crews are relocating a large waterline from the path of the South Mountain Freeway in Ahwatukee.
As long as there have been roads, state employees have continuously done the work necessary to keep you moving. Take a look back at some of their stories in this week's Throwback Thursday.
