Interstate 8 Business, I-8 to SR 85

 

AMP: 122

Location: Butterfield Trail and I-8, Gila Bend

As soon as we get off I-8, we’ll enter Gila Bend

AMP: 122

Location: Butterfield Tr and Old SR 84, Gila Bend

I-8 business follows two historic corridors- SR 84 from here to downtown, and then it will follow old US-80 to the west end of town. We’re 2 miles from SR 85/Old 80 and 36 miles to I-10 via SR 85.

Location: Butterfield Tr and Old 84, Gila Bend

Stay on Old 84/Business 8 for I-10 via SR 85 as opposed to turning onto an old alignment of 84 east we just passed

Stay straight for Business 8 as well

AMP: 120

Location: Butterfield Tr and Pima St, Gila Bend

We’ll go another mile and come up on SR 85, which shows up in half a mile

We’re 100% definitely on Business 8, so I’m not sure what this TO signage is. I guess we will have to turn to stay on the loop, so maybe that’s what this is about

We’ll want to turn left to loop over the highway to SR 85 north and I-10. Stay straight for 8 business to 85 South

Location: Butterfield Tr and Pima St, Gila Bend

Turn right for SR 85 North, which with I-8 and this chunk of I-8 business, serves as a bypass around Phoenix. SR 85 exists in two segments which are not connected via I-8 business, so SR 85 south will not join the loop.

W to SR 85

N to I-10

W to SR 85, E to SR 84
