Not sure about construction zones (state web site might have that info) but i'd get on I-10 as soon as possible and take that all the way. Was not a big fan the the drive thru Superior and Globe. Was kind of slow and winding.

<br>of town and followed it until the appropriate cutoff in Texas.<br><br>However I think I remember something about a construction project<br>between Phoenix and Tucson. I live right off of the 60/I-10<br>interchange, and was wondering if it would be better to head out on the
<br>60 and go through Apache Junction, Superior, Globe and Safford, then<br>cutting down on the 191 and hitting I-10. Or continue on 70 out of<br>Safford and meet up with I-10 in Lordsburg, NM. Or any other<br>suggestions someone may have...as long as I get to I-10 by central
<br>Texas, I'm good!<br><br>I've never traveled this particular stretch of road before, though, so I<br>have no idea what the condition of it is. This is a 1000 mile trip that<br>we're doing in one shot, so I'm not looking to sightsee and don't really
<br>want to deal with a ton of 45 mph speed limits. However if the<br>construction zones are going to be worse or about the same, I'll deal<br>with some slower speed limits. I don't mind curvy/small roads if the
<br>speed limits aren't insanely low.<br><br>Oh, and we'll be leaving early on a Saturday morning, so rush hour<br>traffic won't be a concern (in either Phoenix or Tucson).<br><br>Thanks,<br>-Lisa<br>"PoledraDog"
