PALM SPRINGS, CA — North Indian Canyon Drive reopened Thursday after a six-day closure due to flooding from last week's storm.

About 7:45 p.m. Friday, the roadway was closed due to flooding from Sunrise Parkway to Garnet Avenue, according to Palm Springs city officials.

North Indian Canyon Drive remained closed at the wash Monday morning due to remaining water, sand and debris. Crews cleaned the debris by about 2:40 p.m., but closures remained as water was flowing into both lanes.
The road reopened Thursday afternoon, according to the Palm Springs Police Department.
