In Page, US 89 is closed at the junction with State Route 98.<br /> <br /> The alternate route to Page will take drivers east on US 160 to SR 98 (about 50 miles) and north on SR 98 to Page. The detour is about 45 miles longer than the direct route.<br /> ADOT crews are on scene and are deploying geotechnical engineers to investigate. It is not known at this time how long the road will be closed.<br /> <br /> For the latest highway conditions across Arizona, visit ADOT’s Travel Information site at <a href="http://www.az511.gov">www.az511.gov</a> or call 5-1-1.

Because of the association between superior mobility (minimized travel times) and economic growth, such policies are also likely to constrain job creation and lead to higher rates of poverty. Finally, the slower, more "stop and go" traffic would increase greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) per mile (because fuel efficiency declines markedly in congestion), which could cancel out any GHG reductions from reduced levels of driving.<br /> <br /> In addition, smart growth rationing policies, which contributed so substantially to the housing bubble and subsequent bust would substantially increase the price of housing in more affordable metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, Indianapolis, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston and others. In these metropolitan areas, house prices were kept within historic norm, even during the housing bubble, as their more liberal land use regulation permitted sufficient housing to be developed to meet the increased demand from more profligate lending policies.
