Next phase for US 89 and Haul Road roundabout construction to begin Friday
New frontage road detours for alternate access to businesses
PHOENIX – June 1, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — The Arizona Department of Transportation is moving onto the next phase of construction on the new roundabout at the intersection of US 89 and Haul Road in Page, beginning this Friday, May 29.
During this phase of construction the intersection of US 89 and Haul Road will have restrictions in place for east- and westbound travel on Haul Road, which will not allow cross traffic on US 89 from Haul Road.
With Haul Road temporarily closed at the US 89 junction during the roundabout construction, motorists can connect to local businesses by using one of two new access locations along US 89: one in front of Walmart, and the other on the north side of McDonald’s.
Traffic on US 89 will be accommodated with one lane of travel in each direction, including a center turn lane. ADOT urges motorists to obey the reduced speed limit of 25 mph through the work zone.
Access to area businesses will be provided at all times during construction. Drivers can expect congestion through the work zone and should be prepared for possible delays. Motorists should allow for extra time and exercise caution while traveling through work zones.
The $2.3 million improvement project includes the construction of a large, two-lane roundabout that will allow oversized vehicles, including houseboats, to safely pass through the intersection. The project is expected to be completed late this year.

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.
