Got this info for the game on Saturday,might be relivent for Sundays game also:


The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) says the following freeways will be closed or restricted this weekend (September 17-20). Please take these into consideration as you make your way to Sun Devil Stadium

Northbound Interstate 17 will be closed between Thunderbird Road and the Loop 101 in north Phoenix from 9 p.m. Friday until 5 a.m. Monday (Sept. 20) while crews add rubberized asphalt to the freeway. Drivers are encouraged to exit northbound I-17 well ahead of Thunderbird Road and use alternate routes to get beyond the closure. Traffic will be detoured on northbound 19th Avenue to westbound Union Hills Drive to return to I-17. However, drivers should consider using other northbound routes to avoid traffic backups. Motorists might consider using northbound State Route 51 to the westbound Loop 101 (Pima Freeway) to reach northbound I-17.

Meanwhile, southbound I-17 will be narrowed to one lane from the Loop 101 to Greenway Road from 11:30 p.m. Friday to 12 p.m. (noon) Saturday (Sept. 18) for pavement repair work. The east and westbound Loop 101 ramps to southbound I-17 also will be closed. To avoid traffic backups along southbound I-17, drivers can exit at Deer Valley Road and go west to southbound 35th Avenue.

The Superstition Freeway (US 60) will be closed in both directions at Stapley Drive in Mesa from 11 p.m. Friday to 6 p.m. Sunday (Sept. 19) for bridge girder installation. The Stapley Drive bridge over US 60 is being widened and crews will place new girders along the existing bridge. US 60 traffic will be detoured along the freeway ramps at Stapley Drive. Stapley will be closed in both directions at the Superstition Freeway to allow the free flow of US 60 traffic on the freeway ramps. Drivers are encouraged to use alternate east-west routes, including the Loop 202 (Red Mountain Freeway) to avoid traffic backups on US 60.

Eastbound Loop 202 (Red Mountain Freeway) will be closed between the I-10/SR 51 interchange and 32nd Street from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday (Sept 20) for bridge deck joint replacement work. Ramps from I-10 and southbound SR 51 connecting to eastbound Loop 202 will be closed. Drivers can use McDowell Road or Van Buren and Washington streets as alternate eastbound routes. Fans going to the ASU and Arizona Cardinals games at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe this weekend may also consider using eastbound I-10 to reach routes to the stadium.

State Route 143 (Hohokam Expressway) will be closed in both directions between McDowell Road and Washington Street from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday (Sept. 20). Crews will be adding rubberized asphalt to the northbound SR 143 and preparing the southbound side for paving that will occur next weekend. Northbound SR 143 traffic will still have access to the ramp leading to westbound Loop 202. Drivers can access southbound SR 143 at Van Buren Street.

Southbound State Route 51 (Piestewa Freeway) will be narrowed to one lane between Indian School and McDowell roads from 11 p.m. Friday to 9 a.m. Saturday and again from 11 p.m. Saturday to 9 a.m. Sunday for freeway joint maintenance work. Drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes, including southbound 16th Street, during these overnight and early morning restrictions.

Eastbound Interstate 10 will be closed between 7th Avenue and 7th Street from 11 p.m. Saturday to 9 a.m. Sunday (Sept. 19) for maintenance work in the Deck Park Tunnel. Traffic will be detoured from the freeway at 7th Avenue and will use eastbound McDowell Road to 7th Street to return to I-10. However, drivers are encouraged to use southbound I-17 as an alternate route to rejoin eastbound I-10 near Sky Harbor Airport.
