City manager: FTA-funded shared-use path work underway; six-month timeline
Summary
City Manager Mr. Peturcek told the council the Federal Transit Administration-funded shared-use path from State Route 92 Avenue to Cochise to Foothills Drive has started and is expected to take about six months to complete.
City Manager Mr. Peturcek told the Sierra Vista City Council on Sept. 25 that construction has begun on a Federal Transit Administration-funded shared-use path from State Route 92 Avenue to Cochise to Foothills Drive and that the work should take about six months to complete.
Mr. Peturcek described the project during his city manager’s report and said the shared-use path project is federally funded through the FTA. He told the council, “that’s Federal Transit Administration funded and should take about 6 months to complete.”
The staff update did not include a project budget, contractor name, or specific start and end dates beyond the six-month duration estimate. Council members did not ask for additional details during the manager’s report, and no formal action or vote was required to start the work because the item was presented as an informational update.
Why it matters: The shared-use path aims to expand pedestrian and bicycle connectivity along a corridor connecting SR 92 Avenue, Cochise and Foothills Drive; FTA funding indicates the project may be part of a regional transit or active-transportation initiative.
What remains open: The city manager did not provide a contract award or funding breakdown at the meeting; staff will need to provide those details in subsequent agenda items or project updates for public records and oversight.
