TEMPE, Ariz. — A section of Broadway Road in Tempe will be closed in both directions this weekend.
The Arizona Department of Transportation said the section of the road stretching between 48th and 55th streets will be shut down from Aug. 23 at 8 p.m. to Aug. 26 at 4 a.m.
The closure is due to a traffic shift.
ADOT said 52nd Street at Broadway Road will also be closed in both directions during this time frame.
Westbound drivers needing to get around the closure should take Priest Drive to University Drive to 40th Street and then back onto Broadway Road.
Eastbound drivers should use the detour of 48th Street to Southern Avenue to Priest Drive and then back onto Broadway Road.
The ramps at Interstate 10 and Broadway Road will also be closed during this time.
