The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has scheduled the start of the SR 77 Little Colorado River Bridge Rehabilitation project for spring 2026. Located south of Holbrook's downtown area along the route to Snowflake, the work will involve milling and repairing the bridge deck and joints, pavement replacement from the north end of the bridge to Joy Nevin Avenue, and repairs to concrete barriers and sidewalks.[1] Lane restrictions in both directions are expected during construction, which is projected to conclude by late summer 2026.
Sidewalk Improvements in Snowflake
Another project on SR 77 within Snowflake, from milepost 358.87 to 359.45, focuses on installing new curb and gutter, sidewalks, concrete scuppers, riprap, and signing. The planholders list for this initiative, designated as 077 NA 358 F071701C 077-B-(216)T, was last updated on March 12, 2026.[2] This update signals ongoing preparation for the work in Navajo County.
Future Local Road Work
ADOT's list of future projects includes improvements to Rodeo Road from Main Street to Hillside Drive in Snowflake, identified as T071801C.[3] Details on timelines remain tentative as part of the department's multi-year construction program.
Residents and commuters can report road issues to the Town of Snowflake Public Works Division, which handles maintenance of town-owned streets, drainage, and signage.[4]
These initiatives point to near-term traffic adjustments on SR 77, with potential delays during peak construction periods. Motorists are advised to check ADOT's travel information services for real-time updates on lane closures and detours.
