I-17 SOUTHBOUND PAVEMENT PRESERVATION
Sunset Point Rest Area to Black Canyon City

What to expect:

Citations Issued for Noncompliance of Mandatory Brake Check
A mandatory brake check for large trucks is set up on the frontage road of Sunset Point Rest Area.  Law enforcement personnel are on site enforcing the mandatory brake check and will be issuing citations to drivers who do not check their brakes.  Please be sure to plan time to stop at Sunset Point Rest Area during the nighttime work hours between 8:00p.m. and 8:00 a.m. to perform brake checks.

Nighttime Pilot Car Use Extended Through August
Crews will continue to use pilot cars during nighttime work hours to lead groups of vehicles down Black Canyon Hill through August.  The use of pilot cars ensures that vehicle speeds will be kept within safe limits while one southbound lane is closed.  The lane is closed to allow room for excavation to continue on the east side of the roadway.  The excavation work is in preparation for paving that is scheduled to begin later this summer.

Please note: Changes to construction plans can happen frequently due to weather, equipment availability and personnel issues. We try to anticipate construction activities a week in advance but changes may occur. Intermittent lane closures, with short delays, may not always be known in advance.
