US Highways Reopen After Wildfire and Crash Closures

Highways across the U.S. have experienced closures and reopenings due to construction, accidents, and wildfires. In Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Highway 5 will be closed between Eden Prairie Road and Mitchell Road from July 25–28 for repairs, with further closures expected through September 2025. In Arizona, US Route 89A has reopened after a two-week wildfire closure, but the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park remains shut as fire containment efforts continue. Northbound I-5 near Arlington, Washington, closed for several hours due to multiple brush fires and has reopened, though drivers should expect delays. Northbound I-49 in Alexandria, Louisiana, has reopened after an overturned concrete truck caused a temporary closure. Additionally, State Route 16 in Tacoma, Washington, briefly closed due to a brush fire but quickly reopened, and motorists nationwide are urged to exercise caution in affected areas.
