Kingman, AZ – Drivers traveling through northwest Arizona should plan for nighttime closures on US 93 near Kingman this week as crews conduct controlled rock blasting, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT).
The closures are part of the I-40/US 93 West Kingman interchange project. ADOT stated that work will take place on Monday, Sept. 30, Wednesday, Oct. 2, Monday, Oct. 7, and Wednesday, Oct. 9.
According to ADOT, traffic will first be narrowed to one lane in each direction near Coyote Pass at approximately 7 p.m. The highway will then fully close at 8 p.m. on those dates. Both directions are expected to reopen by 8:45 p.m., though drivers should prepare for delays lasting up to one hour.
Officials advise motorists to use caution when traveling near the construction zone and to remain alert for workers and equipment. The blasting schedule is subject to change depending on weather and other factors.
The work impacts a roughly mile-long stretch of US 93 and is expected to improve traffic flow once the West Kingman interchange project is complete.
