ADOT Warns Motorists Of Restrictions On I-40 West Of Flagstaff Starting Friday

Drivers in northern Arizona should prepare for traffic shifts and lane restrictions on Interstate 40 at Exit 191 in west Flagstaff as crews continue project work to replace a bridge. The location is about three miles west of the I-40/I-17 interchange. Eastbound I-40 will be reduced to one lane and traffic shifted to the north side of the roadway beginning at 6 p.m. Friday. A similar shift will occur on Friday, July 29th for the westbound lanes. In addition, there will be a 15-foot vehicle width limit in place and the speed limit will be reduced to 55 miles-per-hour. These restrictions will be in place through mid-Fall this year. Ongoing restrictions at this location include the closure of the on- and off-ramps as well as the crossroad under the bridge. Work is scheduled to be completed in fall 2022.
