I-17: ITS Infrastructure Installation – McGuireville Rest Area to Anthem Way
Interstate 17: Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Infrastructure Installation
The Arizona Department of Transportation has initiated a project to install high-speed fiber optic infrastructure along Interstate 17, between McGuireville Rest Area and Anthem Way (mileposts 297 - 229).
The purpose of this $2.5 million project is to install a high-speed fiber optic backbone along the entire project corridor, connecting existing Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) ITS devices with new ITS improvements.
The work on the 67 -mile-long project includes installation of conduit and pull-box system, fiber optic cables, node building, load center and other related work.
What to Expect
Construction will begin winter 2022 and is anticipated to be completed in the summer of 2022. The project will take place in ADOT right-of-way, with easements in Coconino and Prescott National Forests, Arizona State Land Department and Bureau of Land Management (BLM). During construction, drivers on I-17 can expect single-lane closures during weekdays, with no weekend or holiday closures or restrictions anticipated.
