TRAFFIC ALERT: Twin Peaks Road, Rattlesnake Pass widening project

Hunter Contracting, on behalf of Town of Marana, will be starting construction on the Twin Peaks Road, Rattlesnake Pass widening project. Work hours will be 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Construction is scheduled to take place from July 15, 2024, through August 30, 2026.

The project limits extend along Twin Peaks Road from the intersection at Silverbell Road, through Rattlesnake Pass, and then westward to Quarry Road (Cement Plant Rd). When complete, the project will provide two lanes in each direction with a center median and drainage improvements.

The contractor plans to complete the project in four phases. The first phase begins at Quarry Road (Cement Plant Rd) and extends to the east end of White Stallion Ranch Road. The duration of Phase 1 is approximately 14 months.

When construction begins, traffic will be shifted to a temporary paved detour which will be constructed along the south side of Twin Peaks Road. The detour will remain in place while the contractor completes improvements along the north side of Twin Peaks Road. Access to side streets and residential properties will be maintained. The speed limit will be reduced for the duration of the project. Watch for message boards in advance of traffic changes.

For your safety and that of the contractor’s personnel, please comply with traffic control devices, flagging personnel, and/or detour signs.

Travel time through the project area may increase during construction so please adjust your schedule accordingly. Construction may restrict traffic lanes and create congestion. Taking alternate routes is suggested.

If inclement weather or other events cause delays, the work may be rescheduled without further notice.
