​Project Overview

In 2021, the City of Phoenix was awarded a federal grant to engage the community and support local businesses within the Northwest Extension Phase II (NWEII) Study Area. The product of this grant will be a living document that is created with the local community and implemented with the local community. This planning initiative will act in concert with the business assistance programs deployed by Valley Metro to help local businesses during the construction of the light rail extension.  ​​

TOD Planning

The City of Phoenix - in collaboration with project partners, community stakeholders, and the Mayor and Council - will develop a TOD policy plan specific to the NWEII Study Area. This plan will serve to attract, guide, and prioritize strategic investments in infrastructure, housing, economic development, transportation, and other areas to realize a shared community vision for the future of the area. The policy plan will be developed through three phases of planning:

PHASE 1 – WHO WE ARE (CURRENT STATE ASSESSMENT)

PHASE 2 – WHAT WE WANT (VISION FOR THE FUTURE)

PHASE 3 – HOW WE GET THERE (IMPLEMENTATION PLAN)​
