Statewide Transportation Planning Framework  

Arizona is at a Crossroads

With no end in sight to population growth and development in Arizona, the gap between transportation needs and funding is expected to grow significantly over the next several decades. 

     Preliminary Critical Needs Definition

A Unique and Unprecedented Planning Process

The Arizona State Transportation Board has allocated resources for a statewide collaborative process called “Building a Quality Arizona, or bqAZ” to quantify transportation needs statewide and identify the full range of options to address those needs.  Executive Order 2008-02, issued by Governor Napolitano in coordination with her 2008 State of the State speech, supports this process.

Arizonans Working Together for Our Future

Working in collaboration with regional transportation planning entities, transit organizations, tribal governments, land management agencies, conservation groups, business and community leaders, and the Governor’s office, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and local/regional leaders from across the state are embarking on the development of a Statewide Transportation Planning Framework that links multimodal transportation alternatives with land use and economic planning and development.
