Road construction to begin in Fall 2017 on SR 77 through Mammoth.
Florence – The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), in coordination with the Federal
Highway Administration have announced a “Paving Preservation Project” for State Route 77 in the community of Mammoth, within Pinal County.
The District 1 Supervisor, Pete Rios, said the project is to replace the existing pavement that has deteriorated in recent years creating a rough driving surface for vehicles traveling through the area. The project will begin in the Fall of 2017 and begins at milepost 113.7 approximately 1 mile south of Mammoth city limits and continues to milepost 120.4, approximately 3 miles south of the Aravaipa Bridge. Construction is expected to last 3 months.
“Many of you have contacted my office regarding the horrible road conditions. However, this is a State Highway and not a county road and does not come within Pinal County’s jurisdiction. Nevertheless, I will continue to be your liaison and advocate in this area’s best
interest,” Supervisor Rios stated.
