Ducey moves forward with funding for new I-10 Gila River Bridge
Casa Grande Dispatch
Gov. Doug Ducey has announced $230 million in new transportation infrastructure investments, including upgrades to the Gila River Bridge to allow for the overall widening of Interstate 10 between Casa Grande and Chandler.
“Despite the pandemic, Arizona’s economy is strong and families and businesses continue to relocate here in record numbers,” Ducey said in a press release Thursday. “Now is the right time to use our state and federal dollars to make investments that create jobs, modernize our infrastructure and improve highway safety.”
The funding comes from transportation dollars, including higher than anticipated revenue amid Arizona’s strong economic recovery, and federal COVID-relief funds.
