Home MenuScottsdale Road Bike Lane Project
The Scottsdale Road Bike Lane Project is proposing to add buffered bike lanes, ADA compliant directional ramps, and pedestrian push buttons from Continental Drive (Roosevelt Street) to Curry Road in North Tempe. Once complete, there will be continuous bike lanes along Scottsdale Road from the City of Scottsdale at Thomas Road, to the existing bike lanes at Curry Road in Tempe. The addition of the buffered bike lanes will be primarily accomplished through the narrowing of excess traffic lane width and through minor segments of reconstruction to the existing curbs and medians. The existing number of traffic lanes and medians will be maintained.
Funds for the project were received from a grant from the Maricopa Association of Government’s Transportation Alternatives/Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Program in the amount of $1.25 million; an additional $265,453 in local funds will go towards the completion of the project.
