SR 88 from Fish Creek Vista (milepost 222) to milepost 227 near Reavis Trailhead Road remains an unpaved section of the Apache Trail.

Although there are currently no vehicle restrictions, severe weather or rockfall can affect conditions. ADOT recommends that drivers check the weather forecast before traveling, be confident in their vehicles and be comfortable negotiating the 1.5-mile section at Fish Creek Vista that is steep and more winding and narrow than other parts of SR 88.

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to prepare for around-the-clock lane restrictions with alternating directions of travel through the work zone along State Route 377 between Holbrook and Heber-Overgaard beginning Tuesday, May 26.

Temporary traffic signals will be in place 1 mile apart in the work zone to direct traffic through. The signals will be in operation throughout the remainder of the project. Drivers should expect delays of up to 15 minutes.

The 24/7 lane closure will be in place to protect vehicles from the steep drop-offs that will be present while crews construct the new shoulders.

The project is anticipated to be completed this fall.

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises motorists that construction is underway on the US 93 Cane Springs Improvement project located north of Wikieup.

Crews will be working during the next several weeks to clear the work zone in preparation of mobilizing construction equipment to the area. Most of the construction will take place off of US 93 and will have limited impact to motorists. The speed limit will be reduced to allow for heavy equipment to safely access the work zone.

Located approximately 13 miles north of Wikieup, the project will include the following elements:

• Widening a 4-mile segment of US 93 from a two-lane undivided roadway to a 4-lane divided highway between mileposts 106 and 110.
• Constructing two new bridges over Cane Springs Wash and removing the existing bridge (milepost 109).
• Improving and/or installing drainage and sediment-control facilities, including culverts, pipes and ditches.
• Reconstructing the intersection turnout at Upper Trout Creek Road.

The project is expected to be completed in 2027.

East- and westbound flagging operations planned

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to plan for overnight lane restrictions along east- and westbound State Route 289 (Ruby Road) in Rio Rico from Sunday, July 26, through Thursday, July 30, for paving marking operations, as work continues on the SR 289, I-19 to Peña Blanca Lake pavement rehabilitation project. 

Motorists can expect the following restrictions from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.:

• East-and westbound SR 289 (Ruby Road) will be reduced to one lane in each direction at the I-19 interchange from Sunday, July 26, through Tuesday morning, July 28.
• Flagging operations will direct east-and westbound motorists through a single lane, one direction at a time, between milepost 0 and 11 from Monday, July 27, through Thursday morning, July 30.

• A 12-foot vehicle width restriction on SR 289 will be in place. 
• The speed limit will be reduced to 25 mph in the work zone.

Drivers should obey posted speed limits and traffic control devices and use caution around construction personnel.

Schedules are subject to change due to weather and other unforeseen circumstances.
