Beeline reopens between Payson and Phoenix

PHOENIX – They said it would be closed until Jan. 30, but the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has reopened Arizona 87 (the Beeline Highway) between Phoenix and Payson. ADOT closed the highway earlier this week due to a mudslide at Slate Creek, six miles north of Sunflower.

State highways that continue to be closed or restricted include:

State Route 87 between Winslow and Pine
State Route 89A between Sedona and Flagstaff
State Route 260 between Payson and Heber- chains or 4-wheel drive required
State Route 260 closed between McNary and Eagar due to blowing and drifting snow.
State Route 273 closed approaching Sunrise Ski Resort due to heavy snow.

For more information on travel conditions across the state, call 5-1-1 or visit www.az511.gov. For winter driving tips, visit www.azdot.gov/KnowSnow.
