Phoenix, AZ – Drivers traveling between Superior and Miami should expect significant delays this week as the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) announced a full daytime closure of US 60 for bridge replacement work.

According to ADOT, US 60 between mileposts 227 and 243 will be closed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 4; Wednesday, Nov. 5; and Thursday, Nov. 6. The closure affects the stretch between Superior and Miami in Pinal County.

Detours are in place but lengthy:

  • Eastbound traffic should use State Route 177 through Winkelman to northbound SR 77.
  • Westbound traffic should take southbound SR 77 through Winkelman to northbound SR 177.

The roughly 75-mile detour is expected to add about one additional hour of travel time. ADOT is encouraging drivers to plan travel either before 9 a.m. or after 2 p.m.

Officials also reminded drivers that US 60 west of Miami (milepost 241) will continue to have alternating lane restrictions for ongoing flood-damage repairs, with flaggers and pilot cars guiding traffic through the work zone.

More information and updates are available on ADOT’s website: azdot.gov.
