Project Overview

Project Description

This project will repave (mill and overlay) 1 mile of Chandler Boulevard
between Price Road and Dobson Road. Additionally, the City will make
ADA improvements on sidewalks, curb ramps and driveways. The City will
conduct a Roadway Safety Assessment and will implement feasible
recommendations.

Roadway surface condition

This roadway surface is in poor condition. Approximately 18 months ago, it
had a PQI rating of 54.9 and an SDI rating of 62.8, and has only gotten
worse since then. The segment between Ellis St. and Coronado St. is in
particularly bad condition with a December 2023 PQI score of 50.1 and SDI
of 56.7. Additionally, the RCI rating for this corridor was 56.1 in 2023,
indicating a rough surface. Pavement cracking and potholes throughout the
corridor not only make for a rough ride, but they also diminish lane visibility
and decrease roadway safety.

Project Scoping

The City has done an ADA analysis on the corridor to determine ADA
improvements required. More scoping will be conducted after the RSA is
completed.

Project Design

This will be conducted prior to construction.

Road Safety Assessment (RSA) An RSA will be conducted prior to finalizing design.

In preparing for this project, we have analyzed crash data and found that
crashes, particularly crashes with injuries and fatalities have been
increasing over the past five years.

This data and other factors will be analyzed in more detail in developing the
RSA for this corridor.

Qualitative Factors

Alignment with ARRP Goals

This project will greatly enhance roadway safety by providing a well-
maintained roadway surface. The pavement condition is among the worst
in Chandler with a PQI score as low as 50 in some segments and an overall
average of 54.9. Additionally, an RSA will be conducted to help determine
any other safety measures that can be incorporated. As with any Chandler
mill and overlay project, the city will make ADA improvements to curb
ramps, driveways and sidewalks in the corridor to enhance accessibility and
improve pedestrian infrastructure in general.

Additionally, Chandler has a robust streets maintenance program that will
help to ensure that this important regional asset will be kept in great
condition over time. Chandler performs regular crack seals and slurry seals
on its streets, which help stretch the lifespan of the street and drastically
increase the time between roadway reconstructions.

Finally, Chandler is a Certified Agency, and, if awarded federal funding, will
be able to manage this project in house, resulting in quicker delivery of
design and construction.

Unique Attributes

With an average daily traffic count near 40,000 (39,800 in February 2025),
this is a highly-trafficked roadway that provides an important connection to
Loop 101. There is a significant amount of commercial traffic in addition to
through traffic accessing the freeway. It also has a high normalized serious
and fatal crash rate of 3.9.

Chandler Boulevard is also an important transit corridor, with high-
frequency bus service in peak hours and standard 30-minute service
throughout the rest of the day. Chandler Boulevard is one of three corridors
that the city designates as a high-capacity transit corridor for planning
purposes.

Qualitative Factors

Safety Data and Considerations Accompanying this project will be an educational campaign for bicycle
safety. The City has 8 bus stops in this corridor and can use bus stop
advertising to promote awareness and respect for bicyclists in the corridor,
which can accompany other outreach methods like social media.
Additionally, green pavement markings can be added to create more visual
awareness of the space designated for bicyclists.

Furthermore, the RSA will identify additional safety improvements that may
be able to be implemented.

Community Outreach The city's 2025-26 budget survey asked residents to priority rank various
Chandler programs. Residents rated additional street maintenance
activities as the fifth most important city program to fund. This particular
corridor has received repaving requests from Chandler residents.

Additionally, the Chandler Mayor has provided a letter of support for the
project.
