Agenda Item Text:
Approve Intergovernmental Agreement 11-121 between the State of Arizona and Cochise County for the Davis Road Project Assessment and Design Concept Report.
Background:
This proposed project is located in Cochise County, on Davis Road between SR 80 and SR 191. This 24 mile road connects the town of Tombstone, along SR 80, and McNeal, along SR 191, and serves commuter traffic, regional traffic and commercial traffic. Countless locations along Davis Road experience frequent flooding resulting in innumerable road closures. The proposed improvements are intended to increase all weather access along the road by adding drainage culverts and improving roadway geometrics.
Cochise County received earmarked SEC 115 federal aid for critical drainage and roadway improvements for Davis Road in 2005. As project design moved forward it became clear that additional funds would be needed to fully assess the entire 24 mile corridor and determine what the full build-out configuration should be in the future. In addition, the segment of Davis. Rd., from Central Highway to SR 191 is in need of a full reconstruction. The County successfully applied for Coordinated Border Infrastructure (CBI) funds through SEAGO and were awarded a total of $761,944 in federal funds. These funds will be applied environmental clearance, 30% design plans and a Design Concept Report for the eastern segment of Davis. Rd.
