Westbound I-10 traffic switch at Ina Road set for Jan. 27-28

Motorists on Interstate 10 near Ina Road should expect lane restrictions for a traffic shift the night of Saturday, Jan. 27.

The following restrictions are scheduled from 10 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 27, to 5 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 28, to allow crews to place concrete barrier and perform striping work:

• Westbound I-10 will be reduced to one lane between Orange Grove and Cortaro roads (mileposts 250-247).
• The left lane of eastbound I-10 will be closed between Cortaro and Orange Grove roads.
• The on-ramp from Orange Grove Road to westbound I-10 will close. Drivers will be directed to Sunset Road to access westbound I-10.

The travel restrictions will allow crews to switch westbound traffic from the westbound frontage road to the newly constructed travel lanes that will ultimately be used by eastbound traffic.  Both east- and westbound drivers will utilize the newly constructed lanes while the westbound half of the traffic interchange is replaced.

Drivers should proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down and watch for construction equipment and personnel. 

The project to reconstruct the interchange at I-10 and Ina Road includes an overpass of I-10 and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. In addition, both I-10 and Ina Road will be widened in the project area. Learn more on the project website.

Managed by ADOT, the project is funded by the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County. The voter-approved, $2.1 billion RTA plan will be implemented through 2026. Details about the full plan are available at RTAmobility.com.

Ina Road Update: Traffic changes

Drivers heading from northwest Pima County toward downtown Tucson will start using new eastbound lanes of Interstate 10 at Ina Road this weekend.

Beginning the evening of Saturday, Dec. 16, Arizona Department of Transportation crews will begin moving eastbound traffic to the new I-10 lanes as part of a two-year project to improve both I-10 and Ina Road. The work is expected to be complete the morning of Sunday, Dec. 17.

Also on Sunday, about one mile west of the freeway, Ina Road traffic will switch to a new bridge over the Santa Cruz River. This bridge will carry one lane of traffic in each direction while the old bridge is removed and a second new bridge is built in its place.

The I-10/Ina Road interchange project, which remains on schedule approaching the halfway point, will add a lane in each direction to both I-10 and Ina Road and includes a bridge to carry Ina Road traffic over I-10 and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. The improvements will allow traffic to move more smoothly through the area while enhancing safety.

In mid- to late January, westbound I-10 traffic also will switch to the new eastbound pavement, with a concrete barrier separating three lanes of traffic in each direction.

When the work is complete in early 2019, I-10 will have four lanes in each direction, Ina Road will be two lanes in each direction and there will be two bridges over the Santa Cruz River west of I-10, each carrying two lanes of traffic.

ADOT is overseeing the $128 million project, which is funded by the Federal Highway Administration, the Pima Association of Governments and the Regional Transportation Authority. The town of Marana is contributing $7.9 million toward the cost of the new Ina Road bridges over the Santa Cruz River.

Traffic Update: Arizona Pavilions Dr.

Arizona Pavilions Dr. to close between EB I-10 Frontage Road & Continental Links

As part of the Town of Marana’s Cracker Barrel Roadway Restoration Project, beginning Monday, October 16 at 6:00 am and continuing through Tuesday, October 17 at 4:00 pm, Arizona Pavilions Drive will be closed to all through traffic between the eastbound I-10 frontage road and just east of Continental Links Drive so workers can install new storm drain pipe across Arizona Pavilions Drive.  Every effort will be made to shorten the duration of this closure where possible.

During this work, the following restrictions will be in place:

• Cracker Barrel Road remains one way only northbound.
• Motorists can turn left only onto Arizona Pavilions Drive from northbound Cracker Barrel Road.  No right turns will be allowed during this closure.
•  Motorists exiting Continental Links Drive must turn right onto Arizona Pavilions Drive.  No left turns will be allowed during this closure.
• Arizona Pavilions Drive will be closed just west of the EB I-10 frontage road leaving access only to the New Town Buffet restaurant parking area.  Motorists must exit back onto the EB I-10 frontage road.  In order to access other businesses on Cracker Barrel Road or Arizona Pavilions Drive, motorists will be detoured along EB I-10 frontage road to Cortaro Road.

Directional signs will be set up to guide motorists along the detour route for access to businesses situated along Cracker Barrel Road and Hospitality Drive as well as the business and residential areas situated along Arizona Pavilions Drive south of Cracker Barrel Road.

For your safety and that of the contractor’s personnel, please comply with all traffic control devices, flagging personnel, and/or detour signs. Travel time through the project area may increase during construction so please adjust your schedule accordingly. Construction may restrict traffic lanes and create congestion. Taking alternate routes is suggested. 

If inclement weather or other events cause delays, the work may be rescheduled without further notice.
