ADOT is holding an open-house meeting to provide an update on the study of potential improvement options along I-17 between Anthem and Cordes Junction. Options include adding new travel lanes along I-17, between Anthem Way and Sunset Point Rest Area, and the construction of flex lanes, a separate pair of new lanes for use in the busiest direction of travel or in the event of a closure for the mountainous stretch of I-17 between Black Canyon City and Sunset Point. The meeting will be held Tuesday, April 3 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Cãnon Elementary School, on South School Loop Road, Black Canyon City. New I-17 lanes in areas between Anthem and Black Canyon City are currently scheduled for construction in the years 2021-22.
