Operation Splash

Operation Splash June 15 through mid-September 

 

Protecting the traveling public on City streets during Tucson’s Monsoon Season is the objective of Operation Splash. As weather patterns shift to bring moisture into Tucson, crews from the Streets Maintenance Division deliver barricades to hundreds of dip crossings throughout the City.

  • During Operation Splash, City crews are on-call day and night to assist with placing barricades at flooded washes and dip crossings. After the floodwater recedes, Street Maintenance crews begin evaluating conditions of the roadway and remove any accumulation of hazardous debris.
  • Motorists, we ask you please do not drive through a flooded wash. You do not know how deep the water is, or what condition the roadway is in under the water. Turn Around, Don't Drown
  • You can report storm-related damage my calling (520) 791-3154 or emailing TDOTConcerns@tucsonaz.gov
