El Paso Tracker

Every road closure, water issue, outage, construction notice and transit alert the city's agencies, utilities and newsrooms reported across El Paso and the close-in metro, counted week by week. No login, no feed. Just the numbers, and where they landed.

Right nowAll clear. Nothing these sources watch is active this minute.

Construction notices fell from 4 to 0 last week. Road, water and power have held steady. Transit stayed quiet.

Weeks start on Sunday. One thing is counted once per place per day, and something that runs for days counts on the day it started. Brief lane blocks that cleared inside an hour are left out, closures scheduled to run longer than a week are roadworks rather than incidents, an outage counts when it left 10 or more customers without power, and stories about policy or funding are not incidents.

What the map says

Tap a row to see it on the map.

Areas are measured from San Jacinto Plaza in downtown El Paso: within 2 miles is Downtown El Paso, within 8 miles (about where US 54 and Loop 375 run) is that side of El Paso, and beyond that is the metro. An item with no coordinates is counted in the totals but not placed on the map. Corridors come from the road a source named. Interstates are split into the stretch north, south, east or west of downtown El Paso, since one number for a whole interstate hides where the trouble is. Districts are the City of El Paso's own council boundaries, from the city's GIS: the eight districts, 1 to 8 (the mayor has no district and is not drawn). Horizon City, Socorro, San Elizario and the rest of El Paso County have their own councils and are shown on the metro map.
