7:30 P.M. Update to I-17 Closure

7:30 PM: I-17 southbound CLOSED south of Munds Park. Below are some alternate routes off of I-40. SR 89A is not an option.

6:30 PM: According to the Arizona State Troopers and ADOT, one lane has been reopened on the southbound interstate 17 roughly 40 miles south of Flagstaff. The collison involves at least 7 vehicles, and one person has died. Still no word on when both lanes will reopen, but traffic is backed up nearly 30 miles. The switchbacks through 89A and Sedona are also stop and go due to heavy traffic from the detour as well as an accident near Slide Rock State Park.
