As work resumes on SR 89A, the Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to prepare for ongoing lane restrictions along a 3-mile segment of State Route 89A in Prescott Valley through Friday, Sept. 8. The recent delay to road work was due to rainy weather conditions.
There will be no restrictions on Friday, Sept. 1, through Monday, Sept. 4 in observance of the Labor Day holiday weekend.
Drivers should allow for extra travel time while the following daytime restrictions are in place from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m. (northbound) and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (southbound) Mondays through Saturdays.
- SR 89A will be reduced to one lane in each direction between Glassford Hill and Coyote Springs roads (mileposts 322-325).
- SR 89A will be reduced to one lane only with alternating north- and southbound travel between Coyotes Springs and Fain roads.
- On-site flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
- Drivers should be prepared to stop when approaching and proceeding through the flagging operation.
- Expect delays on access ramps for up to 15 minutes. Please use alternate routes.
- There will be a 14-foot vehicle width restriction, and the speed limit will be reduced in the work zone.
The restrictions are needed so crews can remove and replace the existing top layer of pavement on the north- and southbound lanes.
