Blasting To Close Section Of US 60 Near Superior, East Of Phoenix

Get ready for delays on the U.S. 60 next week. 

The section located 65 miles east of Phoenix will close several times next week for a blasting operation. The Arizona Department of Transportation says the closures are part of an improvement project to build a new passing lane and widen roadway shoulders.

Closures will take place near Superior on January 5th, 6th and 7th. Drivers should plan for delays.
