Loop 101 in the Scottsdale area will be impeded and sometimes closed through the end of 2016 for a project that will add one northbound and one southbound lane to the freeway.
The Arizona Department of Transportation said the project will launch later this month. It involves an 11-mile stretch between Loop 202 and Shea Boulevard.
The project will affect numerous businesses along the way, particularly those on the Salt River Reservation east of Pima Road.
