Grant is already a wasteland of abandoned buildings. Preserve what historic zones we have left.

What this city needs most is to sync light signals 24/7, at least all major intersections of major east/west & north/south thoroughfares. Remove traffic triggering stripes.

Simply widening the street only inreases traffic in the area and doesn't reduce congestion.

...the streetcar (SunLink) should have been considered on Broadway to assist shoppers accessing grocery stores, El Con Mall, Reid Park, even as far as PCOA...with branch lines to UA and VA. If you want to see downtown population growth give them convenient access to transportation. We need people with foresight and experience determining our future.

No more big road projects; right-size our streets, and build community rather than tearing it down.

Tucson must expand options for different types of traffic--pedestrian & bicycle--and not sacrifice historic urban fabric for more cars

As a Tucson homeowner, preservationist, and someone who believes in building walkable cities, I urge you not to widen Broadway. It has been repeatedly proven this this does not solve traffic issues, and will in fact be more dangerous for bikes and pedestrians. Thank you.

My cat Buff came from Kismet! You cannot displace this organization! We have a freeway already! Stop turning our city streets into 6 lane highways & maybe put some money toward making the streets safer for bicycles/pedestrians... and pets!

Traffic flow isn't great, but surely $74 million dollar outlay for wider roads isn't the answer! The money should be used in a more proactive manner investing in future of the neighborhood and businesses of that area.

I have lived in Pie Allen since 1995 & am a native of Tucson. I am opposed to the Broadway widening simply because we don't need it. This money could be used more wisely.

I live on Broadway and commute along it regularly. I do not feel there is a need to expand it and compromise businesses for an unnessary widening. There is never a bottleneck of traffic the significantly impedes movement of traffic.

Improve public transportation including extending the trolley line. FIX the roads we already have.
