Poor driving conditions caused by the winter storm have forced the closure of multiple state highways, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation. ADOT recommends avoiding travel in storm-impacted areas unless it is necessary.
The following highways are closed as of Thursday night:
• Arizona 80 between Tombstone and Bisbee.
• Arizona 90 between Sierra Vista and the Arizona 80 juncture.
• Interstate 40 eastbound at Ash Fork, milepost 146.
• Interstate 17 northbound at milepost 307, about 20 miles north of Camp Verde.
• US 60 between Globe and Superior.
Additionally, US 93 is closed in both directions at milepost 170, about 25 northwest of Wickenburg, because of a crash.
