About the Northern Parkway Program
The future 12.5 mile segment of Northern Parkway extending between Loop 303 and US60/Grand Avenue will traverse along the current Butler Road alignment between Loop 303 and Litchfield Road north of Luke Air Force Base (LAFB) and then shift southeastward along the current alignment of Northern Avenue through the jurisdictions of El Mirage, Glendale, Peoria and Maricopa County.
The future Northern Parkway ultimate configuration will generally consist of six travel lanes (three travel lanes in each direction with a center median). Traffic projections indicate that eight travel lanes (four travel lanes in each direction) will be necessary in the future between El Mirage Road and 106th Avenue. Grade-separated overpasses will enhance traffic flow at major arterial intersections, including Sarival Avenue, Reems Road, Litchfield Road, Dysart Road, El Mirage Road, 93rd Avenue (west ramps), 91st Avenue (east ramps), 83rd Avenue and 75th Avenue. A grade-separated underpass will be constructed at the intersection of 103rd Avenue. Overpasses will also cross over the BNSF Railroad at 143rd Avenue, 99th Avenue and 97th Avenue. Major bridges will cross the Agua Fria River, New River, US60/Grand Avenue, BNSF Railroad and a bypass bridge will cross over Loop101.
