Pima Road upgrade eyed to ease Scottsdale traffic
The city council delayed funding for a $5,500 preliminary study to widen Pima Road from McDowell to Shea, seeking Salt River Indian Reservation cost sharing. Supporters say a two-lane paved Pima with a canal bridge could cut through traffic on Scottsdale Road and other north south routes, with federal aid possible. Through traffic from Tempe Mesa and beyond adds to Scottsdale’s congestion and a Shea to McDowell through street is needed.
