Monday’s summer storms brought more flooding to Maricopa roads Tuesday.

The City of Maricopa once again closed Porter Road north of Farrell Road due to rising waters in the Santa Rosa Wash.

Rancho El Dorado Parkway is also closed at the Santa Rosa Wash crossings.

However, State Route 238 is re-opened west of Ralston Road after the Arizona Department of Transportation set up barricades early Sunday evening.
