Interchange work at the 10 and Indian Canyon to begin Tuesday

The newspaper is reporting that the construction work on the 10 and Indian Canyon Drive will start on Tuesday. It's been delayed because of the rain. The work will cause some traffic headches. The paper says: "Westbound traffic on Tuesday will be directed off the freeway and then back on after passing the construction from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. Eastbound traffic will be rerouted on Wednesday, according to Palm Springs city officials. Lane closures begin at 9 p.m. both days. The project has twice been postponed because of weather. The detours are estimated to add 15-20 minutes to motorists’ drive time ... The interchange improvements — which will use wrap-around ramps to ease congestion on current left turns onto the interstate — are part of a 230-road project list through 2030 in the Coachella Valley that is expected to cost roughly $4.2 billion over 30 years. Construction on the $25.9 million project at Indian Canyon was expected to be completed in early 2012 before the delays." For more information on the project go to this link. Miss Penny Lane says: She's eager for improvements so she can get to the outlets even faster.
