Transportation board awards construction contract for new I-40/US 93 traffic interchange project in Mohave County
Construction scheduled to begin this summer
The Arizona State Transportation Board has awarded a $106 million construction project to build a new system-to-system traffic interchange at the junction of Interstate 40 and US 93 in west Kingman and Mohave County.
The contract was awarded to Fisher Sand & Gravel Company during the transportation board’s March 15, monthly meeting. Construction is expected to begin this summer and take approximately 2 and a half years to be complete.
ADOT has monitored the increasing traffic growth and congestion in west Kingman that has occurred over the years. The traffic volume is more than the current interchange is designed to accommodate.
The new interchange will:
- Address existing traffic backups and delays on I-40 and US 93.
- Relieve traffic congestion on Beale Street.
- Improve travel between I-40 and US 93.
- Accommodate projected traffic volumes for the next 25 years.
More information will be provided before construction gets underway. To sign up for project-related traffic alerts and updates sent directly to your email inbox, visit azdot.gov/WestKingman.
