The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to expect daytime lane restrictions along Business 40, locally known as Navajo Boulevard, in downtown Holbrook beginning Monday, April 14, as a pavement rehabilitation project resumes after a winter hiatus.

Drivers should expect the following restrictions Mondays through Fridays from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. while crews install the ramps: B-40 (Navajo Boulevard) will have lane closures in various locations between Florida Street and Joy Nevin Avenue (milepost 287).

Access to businesses will be maintained; however, there may be brief restrictions when/if work takes place directly in front of driveways and side streets. Traffic control may include travel through the railroad crossing, which may be controlled by flaggers.

Greetings Roadrunners- Due to a fire along Rt. 77 near Spider Mountain north of Whitecone, HUSD #3 buses will use two alternative routes to get students home: #1- Indian Wells to Whitecone- if families live south of the fire, please pick up your children at Whitecone bus stop. #2- Indian Wells to Dilkon to Second Mesa to Polacca to Jeddito- if families live north of the fire, please pick up your children at the Jeddito bus stop. The bus will be arriving at an anticipated time of 6:30 pm to 7:00 pm (AZ time). If your child rides the activity bus you will need to use a route to get to Indian Wells to pick up activity bus riders. We are not sure when Rt. 77 will open so we will use these alternative routes to get students home is a safe and timely manner. Please contact 928-241-4897 if you have questions pertaining to your child's pick up plans. Thanks for your partnership and thank you for being Roadrunners!
