I-10 Roadwork in
Tucson, AZ Sept 2007
Our September 18 speaker
at the Leads Unlimited meeting was from
the AZ dept of Transportation. She talked
about the reasons for the construction
on I-10 and it's effects on businesses
in the area. We asked some questions
and learned about some upcoming events
like the Gem Show and how it will be
effected.
Each Tuesday morning Leads
Unlimited, a business leads group,
meets at Mimis cafe on Broadway and
Wilmont in east Tucson, Arizona.
We eat breakfast and listen to a
guest speaker. Affterwards we exchange
leads and talk business. Visitors
are welcome to join us for breakfast
as well. As a guest you can order
from Mimis business breakfast menu
and sit in our meeting. You can be
a guest for three weeks, to decide
if you want to become a member. Join
us next Tuesday |

Work is currently
in progress on widening I-10 from Prince
Road to 29th Street.
 |
Due
to the level and proximity of traffic
on I-10 and the frontage roads
in the project area, drivers are
asked to stay in their vehicle
if it breaks down, has a flat tire
or is otherwise unable to be driven
out of traffic to an area that
is safe for you to exit your car
or make repairs. Call 911 for emergency-related
assistance. A tow truck will be
dispatched immediately to move
your vehicle to a safe area away
from traffic. |
One Major
Routing Change:
Summer 2007 – Spring 2010
- All
entrance and exit ramps between
Prince Road and 29th Street are
closed for approximately 2½ years.
- I-10 remains
open! Two eastbound and
two westbound travel lanes on the
Interstate remain open in the project
area. Vehicles on I-10 that do
not need to exit between Prince
Road and 29th Street should stay
on I-10 through the construction
zone.
- On the frontage roads,
a third lane is open to traffic,
creating three lanes of one-way traffic
in each direction from Prince Road
to 29th Street for local traffic
and access.
- Major cross-street
traffic, including turns onto these
streets, are maintained, and signals
are re-timed.
- Motorists should anticipate
occasional weekend and nighttime
cross-street closures during bridge
demolition and construction.
