Project: Prescott Arizona Airport Connector
Summary
The Prescott Airport Connector project realigned and widened State Route (SR) 89A north of Prescott, AZ. The 4.5-mile, $25 million ($2013) project involved realigning a portion of the existing SR 89A and widening it to 4-lanes. The project's primary motivation was to address existing capacity and safety issues on SR 69 and the existing SR 89A, provide an alternate east-west arterial for the Prescott area, and provide improved access to Prescott Municipal Airport.
