The Arizona Department of Transportation begins reconstruction today of the San Carlos River Bridge on US 70 near Peridot and San Carlos. Eastbound and westbound traffic will be directed through one open lane across the bridge at milepost 271, about 21 miles east of Globe.
Today through Wednesday crews will close the westbound lane from 6:am to 6:pm to work on a sewer bypass.
Beginning Thursday and continuing through next summer, the eastbound lane will be closed for demolition and reconstruction of the south half of the bridge. Crews will work daily from sunrise to sunset. A temporary traffic signal will direct eastbound and westbound traffic through one open lane 24 hours a day.
Once the south side of the bridge has been reconstructed, crews will begin working on the north side of the bridge and the westbound lane will be closed.
Motorists should expect delays of up to 10 minutes during peak traffic times.
