Sonoran Desert Drive (formerly Lone Mountain Road) has been planned as an east-west arterial roadway between Interstate 17 and northeast Phoenix since 1987. The Sonoran Desert Drive Alignment study was initiated by community stakeholders in 2011 in order to:
- Refine the alignment.
- Develop and solicit community feedback for intersection configurations at Sonoran Desert Drive and Dove Valley Road.
- Determine connection points between Sonoran Desert Drive and Dove Valley Road.
- Define characteristics that make up the Sonoran Desert Drive Scenic Corridor.
