highway construction ADOT

We were recently asked, "Why can't you finish one project before beginning another? There's construction everywhere!" That short, understandable question requires a bit of a long answer. 

Just in time for the fall travel season, highway crews working for ADOT have finished the Interstate 17 pavement improvement project between Dunlap Avenue and Deer Valley Road. How important is that?

Well, drivers who regularly use that stretch of I-17 in north Phoenix on weekends can bid farewell to the full closures of the freeway, in either direction, that were needed over the past year while work was taking place to create a much smoother ride.
