Drivers in the southeast Valley also can consider using westbound/northbound Loop 202 (South Mountain Freeway) to avoid the closure and reach I-10 near 59th Avenue in the West Valley.

The I-10 ramps to southbound I-17 at the “Stack” interchange (south of McDowell Road) will be closed. Detour: Consider alternate routes including eastbound Loop 101 to southbound State Route 51. Note: Crews will reopen southbound I-17 in sections while the pavement sealing work progresses on Saturday. Schedule is subject to change due to inclement weather.
- Northbound I-17 closed between the I-10 “Split” interchange near Sky Harbor Airport and Peoria Avenue from 9 p.m. Saturday to 2 p.m. Sunday (Oct. 20) for pavement sealing.

Freeway traffic exiting at 51st Avenue will be the Beardsley frontage road. Expect delays and allow extra travel time.
