Houghton Road Final Paving Scheduled

Beginning Monday, June 13, 2016, the City of Tucson Department of Transportation (TDOT) and Borderland Construction will add the final paving on Houghton Road, Broadway Boulevard to 22nd Street. Traffic will be allowed through the project area, but speed limits will be reduced and traffic will be shifted to accommodate the paving equipment.

Officers from the Tucson Police Department will direct traffic.

After the final pavement is completed, barricades will be put in place until the temporary striping can be applied starting on Monday, June 27, 2016. The final thermoplastic striping will be added 30 days later. TDOT appreciates the public’s patience during the final weeks of completing this project.

The public can expect minor delays when driving, bicycling or walking in this work area. Please obey all traffic control signs and watch for construction personnel and equipment in the work zone.

This is a project of the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA). The voter-approved, $2.1 billion RTA plan will be implemented through 2026.

Details about the full plan are available at www.RTAmobility.com. The RTA has a nine-member board with representatives from local, state and tribal governments. This project is managed by the City of Tucson.
