Freeway Decision Coming Soon...

Freeway decision coming soon, from the Arizona Republic, reports that there's less than a week to go before the Arizona Department of Transportation announces its choice for the western route of the proposed South Mountain Freeway, and the phones at the agency are surprisingly quiet. After more than two decades of delays and money shortfalls, ADOT is pushing ahead with plans to build the South Mountain Freeway, the final piece of Loop 202. The freeway, which could cost up to $2 billion, would loop around South Mountain Park from I-10 south of Ahwatukee Foothills to I-10 in the West Valley. The original alignment first proposed in 1985 connected the western leg to I-10 around 55th Avenue.
