description: The project includes street improvements and construction of an adjacent multi use trail. The project is being constructed in two phases. This project addressed Phase 1, which involved: installing 15 buried storm drain laterals to carry rainfall runoff from the street to a 5-foot (1.5-m) diameter storm drain that had been previously buried beneath the street, relocating a sewer line manhole, relocating or installing new fire hydrants at six locations, constructing a sidewalk, converting an open Salt River Project (SRP) irrigation ditch to a buried pipe, modifying SRP irrigation pipes previously buried beneath the site.The future Phase 2 construction will include paving a uniform configuration of vehicle lanes, and construction of curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and a multi-use trail. Because of budget constraints, implementation of Phase 2 was delayed. The site has been evaluated as eligible for the Arizona Register of Historic Places for its potential to yield important information about the Hohokam occupation of the Phoenix Basin. The Phoenix Archaeology Office recommended that the Street Transportation Department arrange for preconstruction archaeological testing or archaeological monitoring of ground disturbing construction activities within the site and a surrounding buffer 250 feet (76 m) wide, as well as within 50 feet (15 m) of the alignments of possible buried Hohokam irrigation canals that were previously mapped.
