There will be some road restrictions in the area expected to last until late October due to the repairs, according to Tempe.
Crews started the final repairs on U.S. 60 in Tempe on Sunday after a water transmission line burst in May, causing heavy flooding and damage to the freeway.
"Before, we got the freeway back to what it needed in order to have drivers on it. Now, we are actually repairing the water main," said Tempe spokesperson Kris Baxter-Ging. Some lanes of McClintock Drive near U.S. 60 had been closed since the water main broke, but as of Sunday all lanes were open.The eastbound U.S. 60 ramp to southbound Loop 101 and the eastbound U.S. 60 off-ramp to McClintock Drive will be closed until about Oct. 28.
Baxter-Ging said people could detour by getting off at Rural Road, and if they want to get to Loop 101, they could get on at Baseline Road. She also said drivers could plan for a little extra time when driving through that area.
