Stick to the surface streets if you plan on driving around Tucson in the evening over the next week.
Interstate 10 will be a bit of a mess, so says the Arizona Department of Transportation, with overnight ramp closures and lane restrictions through June 9, as work continues on the I-10 Ajo Way to milepost 272 pavement rehabilitation project.
Lane restrictions begin Sunday, June 4, on I-10 heading both eastbound and westbound between Kino and Valencia roads, from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. through June 8.
Ramp closures include:
- The eastbound off-ramp at Kino Boulevard will be closed June 4 starting at 8 p.m. until 5 a.m.
- The eastbound on- and off-ramps at Alvernon Road will be closed June 5 starting at 8 p.m. through 5 a.m.
