SW Valley Cities Push I-10 Update...

SW Valley cities push I-10 update, from the Arizona Republic, reports that the Avondale, Buckeye and Goodyear city councils are considering asking voters to approve a sales tax that would amount to 1 to 2 cents on every $10 to go toward speeding up improvements to Interstate 10. The focus is on the SW Valley stretch of Interstate 10 where the areas staggering growth is fueling fears that traffic, already congested, will get even worse. With no early intervention, I-10 is slated for improvements in 2011 and 2021, according to the schedule set out by Proposition 400 which voters approved in November 2004. Southwest Valley leaders would rather see it start in 2007.
