ADOT's published a short video of a rockfall occurring on State Highway 264 that occurred in early January. The road had been blocked by an earlier slide and crews spotted an unstable block in the 50-75 ft high cliff.
Altogether they removed about 1,000 tons of rock along a 300 foot section.

Great job by AZDOT catching this before something terrible happened. 1000 cubic yards...wow.
