Oak Creek Bridge - Scheduled to arrive beginning this Monday, April 27, 33 box girders (concrete bridge spans) will be delivered over the course of the week. Eight to 12 over-sized trucks, each carrying one girder, will arrive in Sedona each morning, starting about 6 a.m. from Phoenix, via I-17 to SR 260 to SR 89A to SR 179. The trucks will be temporarily parked on SR 89A in a staging area just south of Brewer Road, as they wait for the girders to be put into place one at a time. Traffic will be shifted on SR 89A as it approaches the Brewer roundabout while still keeping two lanes of traffic on SR 89A open in both directions except when girders are moved from staging area. During the placement of the girders on the bridge, two-way traffic on the bridge will be maintained. Flaggers will be present to let the trucks carrying the girders in and out and to maintain traffic flow on SR 179. The area will be congested so please allow for extra time to pass through SR 179.Night Work and Lane Closures.
Night work is ongoing from Morgan Wash to Canyon Drive from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Sunday – Thursday nights for the next week to place a 16-inch water line. Traffic will be reduced to one lane and flaggers will be present. This work will include a rock saw, which creates a lot of noise. The work is being done at night to mitigate daytime traffic issues. ADOT and the contractor apologize in advance to the residents in the area and will do everything they can to minimize the duration of this nighttime activity.
