PHOENIX — The Maricopa County Association of Governments is asking for public input on lessening the bottlenecks on Loop 101 and Loop 202 where the two highways intersect.

“Everyday, more than 307,000 vehicles travel through Tempe along the Loop 101 from U.S. 60 and the Loop 202,” Tempe Mayor Corey Woods said in a release. “This is a vitally important transportation route for our community. The purpose of this study is to find ways to reduce traffic delays and make commutes safer for everyone.”

It will provide recommendations and focus on design and other strategies.
