    Arizona Department of TransporationSedona News – The Arizona Department of Transportation is preparing to start long-awaited improvements on State Route 89A in Oak Creek Canyon after the Arizona State Transportation Board awarded a construction contract to proceed with the project at its Feb. 18, meeting. 

    SR 89A Oak Creek Canyon ImprovementThe improvements include: 

    • Rockfall Mitigation
    • Drainage & Sediment Control
    • Pumphouse Wash Bridge Rehabilitation

    Construction is expected to begin early this spring and anticipated to be completed in fall 2023. 

    ADOT invites you to attend a live virtual public information meeting at 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 23, to learn more about the planned improvements and ask questions. More details on the public meeting will be provided in the coming days.

    With the exception of limited daytime and overnight closures, SR 89A will remain open to traffic. Traffic restrictions using a combination of temporary traffic signals and/or flagging operations will be in place while the improvements are under construction. The roadway will be narrowed to one lane only through the work zone(s) with alternating north- and southbound travel. ADOT is committed to completing the improvements as quickly as possible, while balancing the transportation and access needs of local and nearby communities.

    Roadside message boards will notify the traveling public in advance of full closures.

    Initially, the three improvements were going to be completed at different times by two different contractors, but all the work will now be completed by one contractor. This helps address increasing construction costs, the challenges of working on a narrow-and-winding canyon road and the complexity of the work. It will also help better coordinate traffic impacts required to complete the work.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
