The Transportation Needs Study is a planning effort undertaken cooperatively by Yuma County and the Multimodal Planning Division of the Arizona Department of Transportation. It has been funded and supported through the Planning Assistance for Rural Areas program of ADOT. The Study addresses the needs of multiple jurisdictions, as well as the needs of neighborhoods within these jurisdictions. It encompasses a mix of uses within developed and undeveloped zoning areas of the Mesa Del Sol and Foothills areas.
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 pamphlet describes CyberPort as multinational in its approach, considering the impacts of cross-border traffic at the local, state, and regional levels. The goal of CyberPort in Arizona is to increase the capacity of Nogales, San Luis and Douglas to serve as safe, secure and efficient gateways between the United States and Mexico. Nogales, as Arizona’s primary commercial port-of-entry, is naturally positioned to serve as the port of choice for western U.S.-Mexico trade.
The Nogales CyberPort Project began in the Spring of 2002 amid dramatic changes to the safety and security of U.S. borders. Throughout the following year, extraordinary change was experienced in policy and practice regarding the treatment of the border at the local, state and federal levels. While the movement toward a more efficient and effective border crossing environment has been underway in Arizona and the U.S. for a number of years, there is perhaps a no more appropriate time to undertake the effort to define and implement a CyberPort than right now.

There are a number of different ways to measure the performance of government programs. Among the types of measures most commonly used in federal, state and local governments are inputs, outputs, outcomes, efficiencies, and quality measures. Each is designed to answer a different question and must often be used in combination to analyze agency, program or subprogram results.
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.
