At Skousen Road and SR 87, a big improvement for the Coolidge area

Great news for those who live in or visit the Coolidge area in Pinal County: ADOT has completed a project to enhance safety and traffic flow at the intersection of State Route 87 and Skousen Road.

The project, which began last June, added a traffic signal and lighting and reconstructed the intersection, which is about a mile west of the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument. It  added a lane on SR 87 west of Skousen Road to allow for right turns onto Skousen Road. And both directions of Skousen Road now feature left-turn lanes for traffic turning onto SR 87.

We take pride in safely connecting Arizonans while empowering the economy. This project does just that for a growing area.
