Starting Tuesday, February 4, 2014, a permanent traffic shift on Sahuarita Road – between La Villita Road and Nogales Highway – will be put into place. All westbound traffic will be routed to the newly constructed bridge across the Santa Cruz River.
As work continues to finalize the construction of the westbound Santa Cruz River bridge and Sahuarita Road median, speed limits have been reduced and occasional lane restrictions will be in place for the safety of the workers and traveling public.
As part of the ongoing Sahuarita Road construction efforts, drivers should be aware of all traffic control devices/signage and all speed limit reductions, as large equipment may be working near the shoulders of the existing roadways.
