The City of Maricopa has started construction of a crossing over the Santa Cruz Wash  on Bowlin Road next to Rancho Mirage Estates.

Using money from the Highway Users Revenue Fund (HURF), the capital-improvement project is part of a plan to improve Bowlin Road to White and Parker Road. Residents in Rancho Mirage and Sorrento will then have another direct route to the west side of town. The route will pass by the new library being built south of City Hall as well as Central Arizona College.

The project was budgeted over two fiscal years (VIDEO).
