We need more roads

They need more access roads to go north/south than Cave Creek Road and Interstate 17. All the traffic will be clogged up at Carefree Highway, Cave Creek Road and I‑17. No one will go anywhere.

They need to get 7th Street, 7th Avenue, Central Avenue like 23rd Avenue going south of Carefree Highway to Pinnacle Peak, Happy Valley Road, Deer Valley Road, etc. to let people out of the area. Widening only 7th Street is not what we need right now. It’s a waste of money, time and it does nothing to alleviate traffic congestion.

Get 7th Avenue and Central and other streets to go more north to keep the traffic flowing.

Having trails is a waste of land. People will not ride their horses, bikes, etc. on such a busy road if they make 7th Street wider. It’s too dangerous to cross. There will be too many accidents.

We need more east/west and north/south roads to keep the traffic from slowing down. Widening a road for a little bit only creates the bumper to bumper traffic down the road.
