• Abstract:
  With the ultimate purpose of enhancing safety and improving mobility, the Statewide Shoulders Study was initiated to ; develop a prioritized list of candidate locations for shoulder improvements. The need for this study stems directly from ; ADOT’s desire to increase safety and mobility along the Arizona State Highway System. The project purpose is ; demonstrated with the following statement of need: ;  Create Methodology. As the first statewide, shoulder improvement prioritization project conducted in Arizona, ; a methodology needs to be developed that utilizes available data to accurately identify deficiencies. A ; statewide and district-level prioritization is needed in order to appropriate limited funds for priority projects. ;  Develop List of Shoulder Improvement Locations. Currently, there is no statewide or ADOT Engineering ; District-wide listing of prioritized locations for shoulder improvement projects. This document will serve as guidance for determining priority roadway segments within each ADOT District and throughout the State that ; require funding. ;  Develop Feasible, Cost Effective Implementation Plan. High priority projects need to be evaluated for ; feasibility and cost-effectiveness. Due to limited funding, innovative and cost effective alternatives beyond ; traditional pavement applications need to be explored.
