Started by Bypass of Gold Canyon 7 years, 1 month ago

The new freeway alignment would bypass the existing at - grade section of US 60 through Gold Canyon, and would either rejoin the existing alignment southeast of town (in the vicinity of the Arizona Renaissance Festival grounds) or at the newly constructed freeway-grade junction with SR 79 at Florence Junction

With increasing accidents this bypass is way overdue. Added home construction in Peralta Trail will only lead to more roadway congestion furthering accident potential and slowing emergency vehicle response times.

I do not support this plan. Not enough info on exactly where this road will go & what interchanges in the middle of BLM land is for....future development? All this $$$ because of a festival one month a year is not needed,

How many accidents on US 60 through Gold Canyon will it take, before our politicians will act on this very common sense solution? To mix the transit traffic with local traffic does is insane.

It will help divert unnecessary traffic from being forced through gold canyon & it will help business grow as there will be less traffic to deter shopping in the winter or during Ren Fest....it will keep our town safe and property values high There is no bad side to the bypass We need it yeterday and NOT to Florence junction!

If this was Paradise Valley, this bypass would have been built 25 years ago. Gold Canyon is now growing and the horrible traffic jams during the RF has become a life threat. Emergency vehicles can not get through.

A by-pass, of some nature, is IMPERATIVE to the residents of the Entrada Del Oro Community, of Gold Canyon, Pinal County, AZ. During an emergency, where time is of the essence, there are periods of time during the year it takes 1 1/2 plus hours to get through Gold Canyon. And there is not an alternate route going west.

The bypass is needed now more than ever. The daily traffic is bumper to bumper during the day. Pinal County needs to get the funding approved now.

A bypass is greatly needed because of all the new developments in the area have not provided sufficent access to the only access east, west, north or south. It is a safety issue. If there iss an event, thereses no way to get arround. If you had any type of hazardous issue, it endangers lives.
