The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) reminds motorists that no construction closures are scheduled on state highways over the Labor Day weekend. However, the ADOT reminds drivers to make advance plans for trips and expect heavier traffic, especially during peak travel times.
ADOT and its contractors will not schedule any full closures along state highways, including Phoenix-area freeways, from Friday afternoon, September 4, to late Monday night, September 7, to limit impacts on holiday weekend travel.
Drivers should allow extra time during busier holiday weekend travel periods, including Friday afternoon and Monday afternoon and evening.
Multiple agencies, including ADOT, the Department of Public Safety and other first responders, are asking drivers to expect the unexpected while focusing on safety and staying alert during road trips. Unscheduled highway closures are possible due to crashes, disabled vehicles, wildfires or other incidents.
ADOT will have personnel ready to respond to incidents along highways over the holiday weekend. In addition to on-call statewide maintenance crews, the ADOT Incident Response Unit (IRU), sponsored by GEICO, patrols Phoenix-area freeways in Maricopa County from 4:00 a.m. to midnight on weekdays and from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on weekends. The IRU operators assist state troopers as well as drivers in need of help.
