Upcoming road closure to impact traffic in far East El Paso

EL PASO, Texas ( KTSM ) – El Paso County issued a traffic advisory for an upcoming road closure in far East El Paso, the County announced in a news release sent Friday, Sept. 6.

The closure is set to impact the intersection between Pellicano Drive and Aircoupe Way, and Pellicano Dr. and Darrington Road from Sept. 8-30. However, the County said it may extend into October due to crucial utility work.
