A $2.7 million Tomahawk Road widening project in Apache Junction has been approved to install bicycle lanes, sidewalks, streetlights and drainage improvements from Southern Avenue to the U.S. Highway 60 Superstition Freeway.
The City Council on March 7 voted unanimously to enter into an intergovernmental agreement with Arizona Department of Transportation for the city’s widening improvement project. It includes $729,995 from the city and $2,001,569 in federal funds for a total project cost of $2,731.564.
ADOT will manage the 18- to 24-month design, which is to begin in winter 2023; and the construction, which is anticipated to begin in 2025, Project Engineer Raquel Schatz said at the council meeting.
