Oracle Road closed south of Grant

Oracle Road will be closed in both directions south of Grant Road until about 6 a.m. Friday, a city spokesman said.

Crews from Tucson Electric Power are working to replace power poles and lines that were knocked down Thursday, spokesman Michael Graham said.

"TEP crews will be working throughout the night to make the necessary repairs to open the roadway before tomorrow morning’s peak travel time," Graham said in a news release.

Southbound traffic on Oracle is being detoured to either eastbound or westbound Grant. Northbound traffic is being diverted to Speedway and Drachman Street.
