Community Working Groups

The I-10 West Community Working Groups (CWG) were established to ensure pubic participation in the process which will help guide the direction of the alignment, transit technology and station locations for the study area.  The Downtown CWG represents the study area east of the I-17.  The Mainline CWG represents the study area west of I-17. Stakeholders within the study area are encouraged to participate.

The I-10 West extension will travel westbound from the METRO starter line in downtown Phoenix to the 79th Avenue park-and-ride area (see study area map). Planning is underway and the extension is scheduled to open in 2021.

When Valley voters approved Proposition 400 in November 2004, they approved an additional 27 miles of extensions. These 27 miles along with 10 miles of previously-approved extensions at the local level, will result in a total of 57 miles of light rail by 2030 see map.

The corridors for the extensions are part of a regionally-approved transportation plan that includes the federal, regional and local funding necessary to construct them.

Any additional extensions, or any changes to the extensions already included in the Regional Transportation Plan must go through a process outlined in state statute (ARS 28-6353).

The process calls for proposals to be considered by local, county, regional and state agencies and will include representation from elected officials, business interests and citizen groups. Any changes to the Regional Transportation Plan must also be approved by the Maricopa Association of Governments.
