Infrastructure is a vital component in encouraging the Town of Marana’s growth and prosperity. The quality of infrastructure makes the town a desirable place to live for residents, helps shape investment decisions, attracts new businesses, makes the town an attractive destination for visitors and boosts the region’s economy.
The Public Works Department recognizes that part of maintaining a high-quality infrastructure is the outward presentation of the town, but beautification efforts aren’t done solely for vanity—it serves a purpose.
Every year, Public Works chooses a part of Marana to restore to its original condition. This includes repainting bridges, replacing dead vegetation and landscaping, installing decorative gravel and restoring medians and shoulders along the roads. This year saw the restoration of Tangerine Farms Road, and Cortaro Road is scheduled to be next. The selection process is based on what areas need the most improvement and to maintain the standard of excellence that the Town has achieved throughout the community.
