ADOT Imposes 347 Overnight Travel Restrictions from September 3 to 5
State Route 347 will undergo overnight lane restrictions from September 3 to 5 due to paving work. Northbound traffic will be reduced to one lane from Maricopa’s northern city limit to Casa Blanca Road, starting at 9 p.m. each night.
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has informed the public that this maintenance is expected to finish by 5 a.m. on September 6. Motorists are urged to exercise caution while navigating through the construction zone.
ADOT also recommends that drivers prepare to reduce speed and merge safely in the area to ensure their safety and that of the construction workers on site.
