Maricopa plans Truck Route Study to ease congestion
| inMaricopa
The city of Maricopa is launching a commercial transportation study this month, designed to help improve the flow of traffic and preserve infrastructure.
Set to begin Feb. 1 and continue until the end of June, the City’s Truck Route Study is being conducted to not only better understand commercial traffic flows in Maricopa, but also redirect heavier vehicles onto more durable roads designed to handle the extra weight.
Project manager for Maricopa Transportation David Maestas said the city completed an area transportation plan in 2015 to assess internal circulation and regional connectivity. One of the key elements of that plan is the truck route study.
