3-vehicle wreck closes eastbound I-10 near Picacho

Tucson, Arizona

Eastbound Interstate 10 north of Picacho Peak remains closed following a three-vehicle wreck caused by blowing dust, the Arizona Department of Public Safety said.

The wreck, which involves two commercial trucks, occurred just before 12:30 p.m. on eastbound I-10 at milepost 214, blocking both lanes of traffic, DPS said.

At least one lane is expected to reopen in an hour, DPS said.
Blowing dust is causing visibility issues on I-10 between milepost 175 and 218, with the worst conditions between milepost 175 and 200, DPS said. Visibility is less than a quarter-mile, DPS said.
