    Sedona News – The Arizona Department of Transportation is advising drivers, area residents and businesses that a section of State Route 89A in Oak Creek Canyon will be intermittently restricted overnight from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. beginning Tuesday night, Nov. 22, to Wednesday morning, Nov. 23.

    SR 89A will be restricted to traffic through the switchback portion of the roadway near the Pumphouse Wash Bridge (mileposts 387 – 390). 

    • The 15-minute, non-consecutive traffic stops may occur up to twice per hour between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. from Tuesday night, Nov. 22, to Wednesday morning, Nov. 23. 

    Drivers should be prepared to stop and use caution around construction personnel and equipment – or consider using an alternate route – while the overnight restriction is in place.

    The restrictions are needed as crews continue working on the bridge rehabilitation portion of the SR 89A Oak Creek Canyon Improvements project, which also includes rockfall mitigation and erosion control work.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
