agricultural lands which are quickly being developed into residential uses. Other than the existing Swift Transportation facility which is located northwest of the corner of 75th Avenue and Lower Buckeye Road, the entire area is planned to become residential with associated support facilities such as schools, parks, and neighborhood commercial. There are currently two schools in close proximity to this alignment - the Santa Maria Middle School on Lower Buckeye Road east of 75 th Avenue, and the Union Elementary School on 91 st Avenue between Lower Buckeye Road and Broadway Road. The alignment utilizes the existing open agricultural and currently undeveloped land and follows a portion of an existing transmission line corridor. The agricultural lands in this area have a wide open character, with little vegetation other than the crop lands, and allow a panoramic vista of South Mountain and the Estrella Mountains to the south. Opportunities to provide parks, trails, and other recreational uses for the planned residential development in this area as well as linkages to the school sites should be maximized.

Besides one mile roadways, the major existing corridors in this area consist of large transmission line corridors, the BFC and other numerous smaller irrigation canals. The Durango Regional Conveyance Channel utilizes the existing transmission line corridor south of Lower Buckeye Road from east of 83 rd Avenue to 107 th Avenue. This transmission line corridor contains of a double row of metal monopoles. Durango Regional Conveyance Channel (Photo key location 7) Transmission Line Corridor Durango Regional Conveyance Channel (Photo key location 8) Transmission corridor along the existing BFC. Design of the sections of the corridor following the transmission corridor should create pedestrian scale visual interest and include mitigation measures to buffer views of the power poles and power line and maintain the desirable views of the mountains to the south. The recommended plan alignment also uses a small portion of the BFC alignment between 99th Avenue and 115th Avenue and then again from one half mile west of 115 th Avenue to just west of Dysart Road. The existing BFC is an elevated, unimproved dirt lined ditch. It’s route is adjacent to or within existing open agricultural lands and some rural residences. There are currently planned residential developments along the BFC from 91st Avenue to 115th Avenue. West of Dysart, the route is also adjacent to the existing Sand and Gravel Pit to the north.
