Overnight closure of Highway 89 in Prescott begins Jan. 3
Drivers should allow extra travel time, consider alternate route

The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers who use Highway 89 in Prescott to plan for the overnight road closures while pavement preservation work is underway.

Highway 89 will be closed in both directions from 89A to Deep Well Ranch Road from 8 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 3, to 5 a.m. Friday, Jan. 4, according to a news release. The suggested detour would have drivers use Deep Well Ranch Road to access north- and southbound 89. All truck traffic will be diverted to Willow Creek Road.

Flaggers will be in place directing traffic. ADOT will limit access to local traffic only, but delays are possible.

Drivers are asked to obey traffic control devices and use caution around construction personnel and equipment.
