Road Closure Alert for La Cholla Blvd. Widening Project
Heads up, Oro Valley! As part of the ongoing La Cholla Boulevard widening project, there’s an important road closure to keep in mind. Hunter Contracting Co. will temporarily close Naranja Drive from La Cholla Blvd. east to Par Drive. This is happening from Friday, May 17 at 7 p.m. until Monday, May 20 at 7 a.m.
You might experience some delays, so it’s a good idea to plan ahead. For a smoother drive, consider taking Lambert Lane or Tangerine Road as alternative routes. If you’re a local resident, you’ll still be able to get around using Arizona Rose and Cactus Rose.
Good news for north and southbound drivers on La Cholla Blvd.—those lanes will stay open. Plus, Naranja Drive to the west of La Cholla Blvd. won’t be affected either.
This closure is timed to ensure plenty of lanes are open for the Ironwood Ridge High School graduation. Mark your calendar for the ceremony on Wednesday, May 22 at 7 p.m. Expect heavy traffic at the La Cholla/Naranja intersection starting at 5 p.m. If you can, try to avoid the area or allow extra time for your travels.
We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause and appreciate your understanding.
