October 2011 marked an unprecedented opportunity for Arizonans to add their voice and response, as part of public scoping activities in support of the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Passenger Rail Corridor Study, Tucson to Phoenix, conducted by ADOT, the Federal Railroad Administration, and the Federal Transit Administration. For people traveling between Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona’s two largest urban areas, there are limited options. This study is looking at the potential for a future transportation option connecting the urban area. Public input, along with multi-agency and stakeholder cooperation, is essential to understanding and addressing the needs and expectations along the Interstate 10 (I-10) corridor between Tucson and Phoenix. Scoping is conducted early in a study of this nature and helps define its direction. For this study, the scoping process included opportunities for all interested parties to have a voice, and the opportunity for the study team to refine its focus so that the study truly meets the needs and expectations of the Arizona community. |
