Arizona’s future hinges on clean air, economic sustainability, and a transportation system that meets the needs of residents and businesses. Thanks to the efforts of 27 cities as well as Maricopa County Association of Governments, voters recently reaffirmed the critical role of transportation by approving a dedicated half-cent sales tax to fund infrastructure, reduce commute times, improve air quality, extend transit services, all while enhancing the quality of life for Valley citizens. Proposition 479 continues the funding structure established in 1985 and renewed in 2004, maintaining the long-standing commitment to transportation improvement in the region.
