ADOT Seeks Public Input on Passenger Rail Study

The Arizona Department of Transportation is currently studying the feasibility of a passenger rail line between Phoenix and Tucson and is reaching out to the community to get ideas and opinions on the options under evaluation. 

ADOT has identified six potential rail alternatives and one express bus alternative that could link the two metropolitan areas, while meeting demands for future growth and travel options along the I-10. The alternatives for passenger rail all focus on a blended service that would provide both an intercity service that directly connects Phoenix and Tucson and a commuter service that would focus on more frequent stops for daily commuters.

The City of Casa Grande encourages residents to view the proposed alternatives and let ADOT know that you want the rail line to stop in Casa Grande.  Deadline to submit comments is December 15. For more information and to take the survey, visit www.azdot.gov/passengerrail
