CASA GRANDE, Ariz. (AP) - Another stretch of Interstate 10 between Phoenix and Tucson has been widened to three lanes in each direction.

The Arizona Department of Transportation said Thursday the widening of 4 miles (6 kilometers) between Early Road and Interstate 8 in Casa Grande was part of a $43 million project that included replacing I-10 bridges over Jimmie Kerr Boulevard.

A separate $72 million project nearing completion elsewhere in Pinal County will widen 4 miles of I-10 to three lanes in each direction between Eloy and Picacho.

Widening all of I-10 between Phoenix and Tucson would be completed by a project now in the planning and design stages for 23 miles (37 kilometers) of I-10 between points near Casa Grande and Chandler.
