Local Projects In The News

Arizona ranks second in the nation of installed solar facilities. (AZCentral Premium content).

Work on the I-19 Interchange at Ajo Way has been moved up to a 2015 construction project.

The second phase of the project that includes a new bridge over the Santa Cruz River will stay in the 2018 plan.
