SRP to dry up parts of 2 canals in West Valley for annual maintenance

Dec 27, 2024, 8:00 PM

PHOENIX — Parts of the Arizona and Grand canals will be drained for annual maintenance starting next month, according to Salt River Project.

The canal dry-up will be from Jan. 8-Feb. 7 in two areas: on the Arizona Canal from 59th to 75th avenues and on the Grand Canal spanning from 24th Street to 27th Avenue.

Some of SRP’s northside irrigation customers will not receive water from the canals during the dry-up phase.

Canal dry ups allow SRP to perform maintenance in and around the canals. Water delivery to Valley residents will not be affected.

For more information on the canal closures, visit here.

We want to hear from you.
