Why is a new arterial being proposed?
Consideration of a new arterial is in response to long-range planning goals and objectives in the 2003 Great Falls Urban Area Transportation Plan and the 2003 Great Falls City-County Growth Policy. In addition, ongoing public input has indicated a need for an east/west arterial south of 10th Avenue South. These planning efforts and more detailed traffic analysis indicate that transportation facilities in the 10th Avenue South corridor and surrounding street network have high accident rates, poor level of service, and high volumes of truck traffic.
