Flagstaff will hold a public meeting for Lone Tree Improvements from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 4, 2024, in Flagstaff City Hall at 211 W. Aspen Ave. A presentation will be given at 5:45 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is to share project designs, describe construction phasing and traffic impacts, and introduce the contractor.
Improvements to the Lone Tree corridor include the construction of a new overpass that will extend Lone Tree Road between Butler Avenue to the south and Route 66 to the north. Other improvements include a new intersection at Lone Tree Road and Route 66, bicycle lanes, trails, landscaping and modifications to existing intersections.
Construction will occur in two phases. In the first phase, the contractor will construct roadway and intersection improvements along Lone Tree Road from Brannen Avenue to O’Leary Street and on Butler Avenue from Elden Street to Lumber Street. Phase one work is scheduled to begin in May 2024 and continue through 2025. In the second phase, the contractor will construct the grade-separated bridge on Lone Tree Road between Brannen Avenue and Route 66; build a new intersection at Route 66 and Lone Tree Road; and install art, aesthetic treatments, and landscaping throughout the entire project area. Phase two work will occur between 2025 and 2027.
