Interstate 19

Paving work will shut down southbound Interstate 19 from 9 p.m. Sunday to 5 a.m. Monday. Motorists who need to get to Irvington Road are advised to take South Mission Road, South Sixth Avenue or South Park Avenue.

Motorists should prepare for overnight closures set for Interstate 19 between Ajo Way and Irvington Road this week, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

The following closures will be in place as crews work on a pedestrian bridge over I-19:

  • Southbound I-19 will be closed from 11 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Friday.
  • Northbound I-19 will be shut down from 11 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday.Β 

ADOT says motorists should use South 12th Avenue and South Mission Road as alternate routes. Officials recommend drivers allow for extra travel time.
