UPDATE: I-10 now open from Lordsburg to Arizona state line

UPDATE: I-10 now open from Lordsburg, New Mexico to Arizona state line.

LINK: ABC-7 INTERACTIVE TRAFFIC MAP

PREVIOUS TRAFFIC ALERT:

Authorities in Arizona and New Mexico have shut down both sides of Interstate 10 near edge of both states because of high winds and blowing dust.

The closure affects the area from Lordsburg, New Mexico, to US 191, which is just west of Bowie, Arizona.

That area is composed of dry desert and has seen prior closures this year because of blowing dust. Officials say most of the dust is coming from the New Mexico side.

The Arizona Department of Transportation says drivers can use a 100-mile detour on US 191 and US 70 until reaching I-10 in Lordsburg.

There is not estimated time of reopening.
