Phoenix AZ (March 16 2011) – Tight budgets mean tough decisions, and looking out to 2016 can be a challenge. ADOT has released its Tentative 5-Year Program, which lists how ADOT plans to spend its allocated budget over the next five years. Transportation is funded by you, the people who use its services, so your input is critical. Your comments are crucial.
Visit http://www.azdot.gov/Index_Docs/Headlines/index_031111.asp to review and comment on the Tentative Program, along with information about how to read the Program document, and a special video message from ADOT Director John Halikowski.
ADOT needs your voice, Arizona, and thanks you for participating. Please provide your comments by June 3, 2011.
Three public hearings also are scheduled so citizens can comment before the program is finalized: The nearest to Sedona will be held in Flagstaff.
