Welcome to the Oracle Road (SR77) Pinal County Line to Tangerine Road Assessment Study page. Information on this page includes a project description, useful links to related information, and information on the study's public involvement.
 Proposed Project Overview
The purpose of this project is to improve the safety and flow of traffic on this section of the highway. Roadway improvements would begin at Tangerine Road at approximately milepost (MP 82) and extend to the Pinal County Line at approximately (MP 87.8). The proposed improvements include:
- Widening Oracle Road to six lanes by adding a new travel lane in each direction. The proposed roadway section would include three 12-foot-wide travel lanes and a 10-foot-wide shoulder in each direction for the southern end of the project.
- The northern portion of this project through the community of Catalina, the roadway section would include three 12-foot-wide travel lanes, and a 7-foot-wide shoulder in each direction.
- Raised center median with left-turn lanes.
- Rubberized asphalt for pavement.
- This project would join into the widening improvement project that is under construction from Tangerine Road to Calle Concordia (MP 77.5 to MP 82).
- The roadway construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in 2011 and continue through 2013.
Public Involvement
Public involvement is important to the study and assessment of improvements to Oracle Road from Pinal County Line to Tangerine Road. Two public meetings have been held as a part of the study. The first meeting was held June 28, 2005 and the second one was held January 27, 2009. The recorded attendance for both meetings totaled over 200.
