The Sun Valley Boulevard Corridor Study (Study) was completed by Wood Rogers, Inc., and approved by the RTC Board in February 2015.  The purpose of the study was to identify multimodal transportation issues and solutions throughout the corridor in an effort to facilitate a more livable, safer and vibrant Sun Valley Community.  Corridor limits included in the Study extend from the intersection of Clear Acre LN and Scottsdale AVE to the intersection of Sun Valley BLVD and Highland Ranch PKWY.  Improvements associated with 7th AVE to Highland Ranch PKWY were previously completed with the Sun Valley BLVD Phase 1 Improvements Project.  Clear Acre LN/Sun Valley BLVD within the Phase 2 Project limits is maintained by the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT).
