Traffic will be slowed on Interstate 8 at Lagurta Wash Bridge as the Arizona Department of Transportation repairs concrete walls and bridge railings damaged by a vehicle crash earlier this year.

Westbound I-8 will be restricted to one lane through Sept. 17 and one eastbound lane will be closed Sept. 7-10, from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. Speed will be reduced to 45 mph. No roadwork will be done over the Labor Day weekend.
