One Killed as Semi and Car Crash Shuts U.S. 60 in Wittmann

Drivers face major detours on Grand Avenue with no estimate to reopen.

Overview

  • DPS says a semi and a passenger car collided near 211th Avenue around 5 a.m. Wednesday, leaving one person dead.
  • ADOT closed U.S. 60 in both directions, with westbound traffic stopped at 203rd Avenue and eastbound at 211th Avenue.
  • Officials have not given a time for when the highway will reopen as they continue the on-scene investigation.
  • Troopers reported no other injuries at the crash site and have not identified the person who died.
  • U.S. 60, also called Grand Avenue, carries heavy West Valley traffic, so drivers in Wittmann and nearby communities should expect long delays on side roads.
