Overview

The Arizona Department of Transportation has started a construction project to improve US 60X (also referred to as Old US 60, Apache Trail or Main Street) between Sossaman and Meridian roads. The project will enhance safety and business access, improving drainage conditions with installation of driveways, curb and gutter infrastructure and sidewalks, boosting mobility for all modes of transportation. Upon completion of this project, responsibility for this roadway will be turned over to the Maricopa County Department of Transportation.

Median Crossover Improvements

Construction for this project began in Feb. 2024 on the inside (median) portion of the road. Crews worked on curbing, paving, medians, drainage improvements and utility relocation. Many of the median crossovers along Main Street/Apache Trail were improved by lengthening or adding new turn bays while others were removed (see map below) to improve traffic flow and safety by reducing the number of turning movement conflicts. Please note that the 88th Street median crossover is currently closed, but will be reopened to traffic.
