Park Avenue Lane Restrictions, 22nd Street to 36th Street

Published on March 17, 2026

A sunlit street under construction with a line of orange-and-white traffic barriers and “Keep Right” signs dividing the road. Utility poles and palm trees line the sides, with small buildings and fenced lots nearby. Mountains rise in the background beneath a clear blue sky.

Beginning Wednesday, March 25, 2026, crews with Borderlands Construction, under contract with the City of Tucson Department of Transportation and Mobility (DTM), will begin pavement removal and waterline installation in the northbound lane of Park Avenue, from 22nd Street to 36th Street, followed by paving. At 12:00 a.m., on March 25, 2026, there will be no northbound travel permitted within the project limits. This work is scheduled to take around two months to complete and is necessary for the safety of the traveling public and the construction crew. This schedule is subject to change due to inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances. 

Once this work is complete, construction activities will begin on the southbound lane and only northbound travel will be permitted within the project limits. This work is also scheduled to take around two months to complete.

We ask the community to please use caution when approaching a work zone; reduce your speed, watch for roadwork signs and crews working, leave extra space between you and the vehicle ahead, and avoid distractions. 

The work taking place on South Park Avenue is possible through voter-approved Proposition 101 – Tucson Delivers: Better Streets, collecting approximately $100 million for arterial roadway improvements. As part of Proposition 101, voters approved specific major streets to be improved, while the 2012 Bond Oversight Commission selected the local roads to be improved. Since approval, 638 arterial lane miles and 225 local lane miles have been improved with Proposition 101 funding.
