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.
Plants won’t grow if they’re rooted in the wrong soil. That’s why ADOT makes sure its topsoil is suitable for good growth by testing Calcium Carbonate levels.
Drivers traveling between Sedona and Flagstaff received welcome news when ADOT opened the "switchbacks" section of State Route 89A well ahead of schedule.
Visitors to rest areas along state highways will begin to notice recycling containers onsite since ADOT started a recycling program at three rest areas with plans to expand it statewide.
When you’re taking your next road trip through the state, you’ll likely notice our new signs that designate each of Arizona’s 14 highway rest area locations as “Safe Phone Zones.”
We’re headed into monsoon season, which means motorists need to be on alert. High winds, blowing dust and other conditions that can impact your drive are more common this time of year.
