Saturday 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Sunday, crews will work on installation of the temporary signal. If the work is not completed during that time, it will continue from 8 p.m. Sunday to 6 a.m. Monday.
According to Arizona Department of Transportation officials, on Saturday night at about 8 pm, approaches to the Highway 69/89 interchange will begin to see temporary traffic signals that will reroute most legs of the interchange.
- Motorists will encounter the signal on Highway 69 between Heather Heights and Gurley/Sheldon Street. The light will route Highway 69 westbound traffic through the signal, allowing signalized access to northbound Highway 89.
- Northbound Prescott-to-Highway 89 traffic will detour through the traffic signal to get to Highway 89.
- The signal will not affect eastbound Highway 69 traffic.
- Southbound Highway 89-to-downtown Prescott traffic will continue to use the newly constructed Sheldon Street slip ramp.
This weekend's work will route drivers around the section of Highway 89 under the Highway 69 bridge, ADOT plans to shut down Highway 89 under the bridge until about February, to allow crews to demolish the old bridge and work on retaining walls and a new ramp.
ADOT began the $23.6 million interchange overhaul project in December 2007.
