But the loops were fun! ☹

Farewell, Kino Parkway cloverleaf ramps -- you were curvy, you were there for us when we were late, you took us to baseball games.

Yes, the loopy ramps that Tucson commuters use to enter and exit I-10 at Kino will close permanently starting the morning of Thursday, Aug. 14. They will be replaced with with an interchange intended to improve safety, reduce weaving conflicts, and create a smoother traffic flow for drivers entering and exiting the freeway.

The interchange is part of the $600 million project to rebuild and widen I-10 between Kino Parkway and Country Club Road southeast of downtown Tucson.

The project began in June and is the largest highway construction project in Southern Arizona history, with the goal of reducing delays and enhancing safety with additional lanes on I-10 as well as new interchanges. The project will include:

🚧Widening I-10 to three lanes in each direction between Kino Parkway and Alvernon Way with auxiliary lanes
🚧Reconstructing the interchange at Kino Parkway
🚧Constructing a new interchange Country Club Road that will provide access for traffic that currently uses the interchange at Palo Verde Road to allow for safer traffic movements to and from I-10
🚧Removing the existing interchange Palo Verde Road
🚧Constructing a new westbound on-ramp at the Alvernon Way interchange
🚧Constructing an I-10 undercrossing to connect the North and South Kino Sports Complex

Throughout the project, ADOT will maintain two lanes of travel in each direction on I-10 during peak travel times while maintaining access to businesses. Construction is expected to continue through 2028.
