New Mexico authorities are advising travellers that Interstate 40 is closed indefinitely in the eastern portion of that state, beyond Albuquerque, due to a severe winter storm.
According to New Mexico State Police, eastbound travelers through New Mexico should use Interstate 10 instead.
Drivers planning to travel east from Arizona should check road and weather conditions in New Mexico via NMRoads.com or www.nmsp.dps.state.nm.us.
