PHOENIX — The US 60 in Wickenburg will be affected by a sidewalk and improvement project that is expected to start later this month, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
ADOT has not yet released the exact date for when the project will begin, but said the work will take place on the highway between Vulture Mine Road and US 93.
According to the traffic authority, the purpose of the project is to improve existing sidewalks, sidewalk ramps, curbs, gutters and driveways to comply with federal Americans with Disability Act (ADA) requirements.
