The Arizona Department of Transportation will close the Interstate 10/Ruthrauff Road interchange starting the night of Friday, Feb. 14. The process to fully close the interchange will take place over two nights.

By the morning of Sunday, Feb. 16, the following traffic restrictions will be in place:

Ruthrauff Road and El Camino del Cerro will be closed to all traffic between Highway Drive/Davis Avenue and the business entrances west of I-10.
All ramps between I-10 and Ruthrauff Road/El Camino del Cerro will close, except for the westbound I-10 off-ramp. It will remain open to provide access to westbound I-10 frontage road businesses only.
The eastbound frontage road will be converted into a two-way road south of Sunset Road. There will be no access to El Camino del Cerro from the frontage road.
The eastbound frontage road will be converted to a two-way road northwest of Commerce Drive. There will be no access to or from El Camino del Cerro from the frontage road.
The westbound frontage road will close northwest of Prince Road.

The map below shows the expected traffic configuration for the phase of the project starting Sunday, Feb. 16.

The interchange closure is expected to remain in place through late 2021, although I-10 traffic will shift to various configurations.

Business access will be maintained throughout the project.

Drivers should proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down and watch for construction personnel and equipment.
