In 2006, the Stack interchange saw an average of 235,000 cars pass through it daily on Interstate 10 eastbound and westbound; and an average of 120,000 cars on northbound and southbound Interstate 17. [cite web| url = http://tpd.azdot.gov/data/documents/SHSAADT0707.xls| title = Arizona AADT| publisher = ADOT| accessdate = 2008-03-18] The interchange constitutes exit 200A on Interstate 17 and exits 143A and 143B on Interstate 10.
