Arizona State and Local Government Documents Collection
The State and Local Arizona Documents (SALAD) collection contains documents published by the State of Arizona, its Counties, incorporated Cities or Towns, or affiliated Councils of Government; documents produced under the auspices of a state or local agency, board, commission or department, including reports made to these units; and Salt River Project, a licensed municipality. ASU is a primary collector of state publications and makes a concerted effort to acquire and catalog most materials published by state and local governmental agencies.
The ASU Digital Repository provides access to digital SALAD publications, however the ASU Libraries’ non-digitized Arizona documents can be searched through the ASU Libraries Catalog. For additional assistance, Ask A Government Documents Librarian.
Publications issued by the Morrison Institute for Public Programs at Arizona State University are also available in PRISM, in the Morrison Institute for Public Policy - Publications Archive collection.

The Arizona Statewide Transportation Improvement Program identifies statewide priorities for transportation projects. It is a compilation of projects utilizing various federal funding programs and includes highway projects on the cities, counties, and state highway systems, as well as projects in the National Parks, US Forest Service, and Indian Reservation Roads. This is a four-year project list compiled in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration, Council of Governments, and the Metropolitan Planning Organizations. Projects are selected for inclusion in the STIP based on adopted procedures and criteria.
This report presents the financial position of the Department on a cash basis as of June 30. This report includes all funds used to record the financial activity of the Department. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation rests with the Department.
Transportation is critical to Arizona’s economic success. To have a strong economy, our state must have quality highways, public transit, railroads, airports and ports of entry to get people to work and to move products and provide services. By building transportation infrastructure, we can actually strengthen the economy, create jobs and support business development. However, a significant gap exists between projected revenues and transportation investments necessary to support a vibrant economy. Our priorities for the future will focus our limited resources on preserving and modernizing what we already have to protect the taxpayer investment in the existing transportation system.
The Department was established by the state legislature in July 1974 by combining the former Arizona Highway Department (originally established in 1927) and the Department of Aeronautics (originally established in 1962). The Department is not legally separate from the State of Arizona's primary government. The Department's mission is to provide a safe, efficient, cost-effective transportation system. The vision is the standard of excellence for transportation systems and services. This report includes all funds used to record the financial activity of the Department.
