48th Street - South of Baseline Project
This project will widen 48th Street from Baseline Road to South Pointe Parkway to allow for the installation of sidewalks and new bicycle lanes. The west side of 48th Street will have new curb and gutter and sidewalks along the length of the project. A new traffic signal will be installed at the intersection of Baseline Road. This project will also install a new storm drain system and reconstruct the existing pavement.
This portion of 48th Street is currently a private road. The City of Phoenix entered into an agreement with Charles Schwab & Co. and the Pointe South Mountain Business Park Association to upgrade 48th Street and make it a public street from Baseline Road to South Pointe Parkway.
