Expect traffic delays on State Route 98

The Arizona Department of Transportation is advising motorists to plan for daytime delays along a 10-mile stretch of State Route 98 about 40 miles southeast of Page as crews perform maintenance to the roadway.

The daytime restrictions, which started today, are scheduled to end in mid-April.

Drivers should slow down, proceed through the work zone with caution and watch for construction personnel and equipment while the following restrictions are in place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday:

  • SR 98 will be narrowed to one lane of alternating east- and westbound travel from milepost 340 to 350.
  • Flaggers and a pilot car will help control the flow of traffic through the work zone.
  • The speed limit will be reduced to 25 mph.
