Phoenix Tracker

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

Outages fell from 34 to 25 last week. Road and transit have held steady. Water and construction 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 Washington and Central in downtown Phoenix: within 2 miles is Downtown Phoenix, within 10 miles (about where Loop 101 and Loop 202 meet the freeways) is that side of the Valley, and beyond that is the metro. Mesa and Glendale are their own centres: anything within 7 miles of downtown Mesa is placed as Mesa, and within 5 miles of downtown Glendale as Glendale. 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 Phoenix, since one number for a whole interstate hides where the trouble is. Districts are the City of Phoenix's eight council districts, from its GIS. Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Glendale, Chandler and the other Valley cities have their own councils and are shown on the metro map.

Only what these sources published. Nothing inferred. Counted once when an agency and a newsroom report the same thing.
