With National CleanUp Day approaching on Sept. 16, I want to express my thanks to our volunteers who consistently pick up trash along our state highways. 

Some folks view license plates as just a series of letters and numbers, but others see them as modes of expressing one's values, hobbies and interests.

In Arizona we have more than 90 specialty license plates featuring a wide range of causes or charities. To boost awareness, we spotlight one specialty license plate a week on social media.

If you’ve driven State Route 77 in Tucson in the past few weeks, you aren’t just seeing the results of a big improvement project, you’re also feeling it.

That’s because ADOT finished work earlier this month to replace 9 miles of worn and rough pavement with smooth new asphalt, nearly wrapping up a $34 million improvement project that’s been underway since early 2021.

Operated by ADOT, Grand Canyon National Park Airport is an essential part of the community of Tusayan near the South Rim. Those ties were on full display recently when a flash flood swept into the town, covering State Route 64 and flooding some hotels and businesses.
