Westbound Loop 101 on-ramp at 35th Avenue closing for 60 days
Ramp will be reconstructed as part of widening project west of I-17
PHOENIX – The westbound Loop 101 (Agua Fria Freeway) on-ramp at 35th Avenue will be closed for approximately two months starting at 11:30 p.m. Monday, May 12, for reconstruction as part of the freeway widening project west of Interstate 17.
Drivers who normally would use the westbound Loop 101 on-ramp at 35th Avenue should instead consider entering the freeway at 27th or 51st avenues. The on-ramp at 35th Avenue is scheduled to reopen in mid-July.
Work on the $140 million project to widen Loop 101 between I-17 and 75th Avenue began last September. In addition to adding one lane in each direction along the freeways, crews also are widening several bridges and will add new freeway lighting as well as resurface the pavement. Project completion is scheduled in spring 2027.

ADOT is managing the project in partnership with the cities of Phoenix, Glendale and Peoria as well as the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG), which serves as the metropolitan planning organization for the greater Phoenix region. The project is scheduled under MAG’s Regional Transportation Plan and is funded through Prop 400, which includes a countywide half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements approved by voters in 2004.
