JUNCTION, Utah — Portions of US-89 near the towns of Marysvale and Junction have been closed due to flooding, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.
Just one lane of the road is currently open between mile markers 171 and 173, with troopers alternating traffic.
A roadblock has been set up on US-89 outside Piute High School in Junction, with all northbound traffic being stopped.
