The Maricopa Association of Governments and Arizona Department of Transportation are taking a closer look at relieving congestion along Grand Avenue between Loop 303 and 163rd Avenue.
Brad Williams, a project manager for MAG, said a new Loop 303 interchange east of Grand Avenue is expected to provide the most relief.
“The situation today has reached a critical point and more action is needed,” Williams said a virtual meeting earlier this month. “Safety is a real concern. There’s real frustration with the current situation.”
