The Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) also includes funding to preserve right of way along SR 74 as needed to accommodate possible future widening of the roadway and possible traffic interchange locations. The study will identify the needed property along SR 74 from US 60 to Lake Pleasant Parkway (Milepost 0-22), based on the footprint of the ultimate potential roadway. Purchase of any property along SR 74 will be contingent on a federal environmental process.
