If this bill were to become law, it would update current statutes by appropriating a total of $12,300,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $29,100,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the state General Fund to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) specifically for the construction of an overpass at Riggs Road and State Route 347. Additionally, it would require an advanced appropriation of $49,000,000 for fiscal year 2028 for the same project, ensuring that these funds are allotted and available to ADOT in the first quarter of that fiscal year.

The bill also includes a new appropriation of $16,291,610 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2025-2026 to widen and improve State Route 347 between Interstate 10 and the city of Maricopa. This represents a significant increase in funding for transportation infrastructure in the area, reflecting a shift in priorities and a commitment to improving road safety and capacity. The bill would also make technical and conforming changes to existing statutes to accommodate these new appropriations.
