4 issues in roads with medium priority
Regional Transportation Authority Partnership
The town signed onto a master agreement with Pima County's RTA that sets the legal and funding framework for RTA-paid road and transportation projects in Sahuarita.
Campbell Avenue Extension design progress
The $8.7 million extension from Tunnel Canyon Place to White House Canyon Road is at 60% design, giving Sahuarita a flood-safe, all-weather north-south route with bike/pedestrian paths. Federal funding means federal review — construction can't start until 2027.
New railroad crossing timing and La Vía extension
A commissioner raised questions about traffic around the new railroad crossing near the new development area. Staff said the opening date (last set for May 11) keeps shifting, referred traffic concerns to Public Works, and noted the planned La Villita extension to Nogales Highway could change patterns again.
State Route 410 opposition
A resident voiced opposition to the proposed SR 410 Sonoran Corridor. Staff noted the plan acknowledges ADOT's plans but takes no position, though the CCAP section includes a policy about capturing economic benefit if the road is built.
