South Mountain Freeway, Phoenix
from: Smart Choices, Less Traffic: The 50 Best and Worst Transportation Projects In the United States, Sierra Club Beyond Oil Campaign, November 2012
http://content.sierraclub.org/beyondoil/content/smart-choices-less-trafficThe South Mountain Freeway project is a proposed 22-mile, 8-lane freeway in Arizona that will cost $2 billion to build. The project has been under consideration in the Phoenix area for over 25 years, but due to a lack of funding and support, it is still in the planning phase. The project, as proposed, would cut through the western portion of South Mountain Park, encourage long commutes between the eastern and western portions of the metro area, and exacerbate urban sprawl. Many communities in the area do not support this project, including members of the Gila River Indian Community, which voted in 2012 against allowing the freeway to run through their lands and disrupt sacred places. Many of the affected mountains in the South Mountain Range are sacred homelands of the O'odham people. Furthermore, the project will cut through a critical wildlife corridor connecting South Mountain Park to the Estrella Mountains, limiting connectivity for mountain lions, coyotes, javelina, reptiles, roadrunners, and other desert animals.
