The purpose of this project is to extend SR 195 north of I-8 to connect to US 95 and complement the local and regional road network. The connection to US 95 would provide access from the planned commercial port of entry at San Luis to another major highway (US 95), further facilitating the movement of goods between the United States and Mexico, and would provide an additional, enhanced, travel corridor within the City of Yuma.
The Arizona Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration are seeking comments about possible alignments for the proposed extension of State Route 195 (SR 195) between Interstate 8 (I-8) and US 95 in Yuma. Engineering and environmental studies have been initiated to determine what improvements would be needed.
