Building a Quality Arizona: Statewide Intrastate Mobility Reconnaissance Study. Working Paper #4: Issue Paper - Transportation

The "Building a Quality Arizona: Statewide Intrastate Mobility Reconnaissance Study" was initiated by the Arizona Council of Governments (COG)/Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Association, in cooperation with the Arizona Business Coalition, the Arizona Department of Transportation, the State Legislature, and the Governor's Office, focusing on Arizona's growth and transportation challenges. The purpose of this study was to develop a long-range vision, driven by sustainable community and economic development, that links land use, the economy, and transportation infrastructure in the state of Arizona. The study team visited each COG/MPO, as well as other key stakeholders and state departments that deal with transportation, growth, and infrastructure. These day-long workshops brought together local experts in community development, economic development, and transportation to gain an understanding of the existing conditions, issues, ideas, and possibilities. This paper, Working Paper #4, concentrates on the transportation issues learned during the site visits, summarizing these issues and needs as they relate to Arizona as a whole and then asking the reader to think about these issues and consider possible solutions.
