Rio Nuevo’s role in the Broadway widening project

The district will focus on redeveloping the Sunshine Mile.

Early next year, crews expect to break ground on a project that voters gave the green light more than a decade ago. In 2006, Pima County voters approved the Regional Transportation Authority, which entailed 35 roadway improvement projects, including widening Broadway Boulevard between Euclid Avenue and Country Club Road. The area falls into the Rio Nuevo District. Rio Nuevo chair Fletcher McCusker described the district’s vision for redeveloping properties along the so-called Sunshine Mile.
