SRPMIC General Plan - Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community

Sustainable SRPMIC . . . Planning for Generations
Valley Metro provides service to Scottsdale Community College via Routes 50,
76, and 84. Valley Metro also provides service along Pima Road and 90 th Street
in the northwestern corner of the Community via Route 81.
White Mountain Passenger Lines provides daily inter-city bus service between
Mesa and Payson, traveling through the Community on SR 87. However, no
stops exist within the Community. Intercity bus passengers originating from or
destined to the Community may connect at the Greyhound Bus Station in Mesa
that is within the service boundaries of the Community’s local transit system.
BICYCLING AND PEDESTRIANS
A limited number of bicycle and pedestrian facilities exist within the Community.
A policy was established as part of the General Development Plan dated
December 1988 that identifies pedestrian walkways as part of future street
improvements, especially within housing subdivisions and public facility areas.
