Motorists will soon be able to access several popular outdoor attractions in the state when the Arizona Department of Transportation reopens several highways this spring.
State highways scheduled to reopen are:
- State Route 261 between Eagar and Big Lake in the White Mountains – April 14
- State Route 273 between Sunrise Park and Big Lake in the White Mountains – April 14
- State Route 473 between State Route 260 and Hawley Lake in the White Mountains – April 14
- State Route 67 that leads to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon – May 15
ADOT closes these scenic roadways annually as part of the agency’s winter shutdown schedule due to the significant amounts of snowfall these parts of the state typically receive.
