Tempe City Council received the latest update on the Tempe Streetcar extension to Mesa at its Dec. 12 work study session, with staff presenting information on what’s currently happening with the Streetcar and the proposed extension.
According to a city staff report, the city has considered options to expand the Streetcar system through various studies, like the Tempe/Mesa Streetcar Feasibility Study that was presented in May 2020, which identified potential corridors for expansion.
The proposed Rio East-Dobson Extension project resulted from the city’s collaboration with the city of Mesa and Valley Metro to extend the Streetcar into Mesa.
