MESA, AZ (AP) -
A new traffic ramp to enter Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport from the east will be opened on Monday.
The East Valley Tribune reports that the new ramp will connect southbound state Route 143 to westbound Sky Harbor Boulevard.
Meanwhile, crews will re-open a reconstructed northbound Route 143 ramp to westbound Sky Harbor Boulevard, which had been closed since March.
The ramp openings complete an $18 million project by the Arizona Department of Transportation to modernize the freeway connections on the airport's east side.
