Superior, Arizona — A crash closed eastbound U.S. 60 at State Route 177, halting traffic and triggering delays Saturday evening.
According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, the closure was reported at approximately 5:40 p.m. near milepost 227 in Superior. Eastbound lanes remain shut down as crews respond to the crash, though officials have not released details on the number of vehicles involved or any injuries.
ADOT stated there is currently no estimated time for reopening the eastbound lanes. Motorists traveling through the area are advised to expect significant delays and seek alternate routes. Westbound traffic on U.S. 60 remains unaffected and continues to flow normally.
The closure affects a key corridor connecting Phoenix-area drivers to eastern Arizona communities, increasing congestion risks in surrounding المناطق and detour routes. Drivers are urged to monitor official traffic updates and use caution when navigating nearby highways.
Incidents along this stretch of U.S. 60 can quickly impact weekend travel, particularly for commuters, delivery drivers, and students returning between regions.
Officials have not indicated when additional updates will be available, and the cause of the crash remains under investigation.
