Pavement repair on SR 260 east of Payson for the next five weeks


One mile will be restricted on eastbound lanes near Kohl’s Ranch                                                                                   

The Arizona Department of Transportation will repair a dip in the roadway on State Route 260 eastbound near Kohl’s Ranch, approximately 19 miles east of Payson starting tomorrow between mileposts 270 and 271. Crews will be working on the roadway through Oct. 17.

Work will require the roadway to be narrowed to one lane through the work zone and a 14-foot width restriction will be in place.

For more information about this project, please call Tricia Lewis at 928-606-2420 or email tlewis@azdot.gov.

Safety improvement project scheduled on SR 87 north of Strawberry begins next week 


Removal of dead trees on a 16-mile segment Monday through Thursday, 15 minutes delays expected

The Arizona Department of Transportation will remove dead trees from the right-of-way along a 16-mile segment of State Route 87 for the next two weeks in both directions (mileposts 274 to 290), approximately four miles north of Strawberry.

Work will begin on Monday, Sept. 14 and will continue through Thursday, Sept. 24 between 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. each day.

Drivers can expect delays of up to 15 minutes to allow a safe work zone for maintenance crews to remove fallen trees from the roadway. Flaggers will guide traffic through the work zone.

For safety reasons, motorists are urged to not to stop in the tree-cutting areas to pick up the wood.
ADOT advises drivers to proceed through the work zone with caution, slow down, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.


ADOT works to inform the public about planned highway restrictions, but there is a possibility that unscheduled closures or restrictions may occur. Weather can also affect a project schedule.
