The Arizona Department of Transportation wants your input on ways to improve safety along State Route 377 between Heber-Overgaard and Holbrook as part of a safety study it’s conducting.
The study will assess roadway and traffic conditions, identify potential safety issues and evaluate possible ways to improve safety and travel on the roadway. The study is expected to begin this spring and conclude in the summer.
Drivers who use SR 377, regardless of frequency, are encouraged to provide their input on the roadway by completing an online survey at azdot.gov/SR377study. Residents and businesses in Heber-Overgaard and Holbrook will receive the survey by mail. Completed surveys need to be received by Friday, March 4.
Public input received from the surveys will help the study team identify specific segments of the roadway where crashes may have occurred and possible solutions to address problem areas. The study team will also analyze past motor-vehicle crashes and current traffic conditions (speed and volume), planned construction and projected future operational characteristics.
ADOT engineers will evaluate the results of the study and use any approved recommendations to plan and prioritize future projects depending on available funding and resources. There is no funding currently in place to pay for any improvements recommended in the study.
There will be no traffic restrictions or delays on SR 377 while the study is underway. For more information, visit azdot.gov/SR377study.
