Creating a Strong, Resilient EconomyOne of the keys to bolstering Arizona’s economy is ensuring that critical
infrastructure facilitates economic and job growth. With our prime
location amid major markets, an excellent surface transportation system
connects us to markets and facilitates quality job creation and the growth
of base industries that export outside of the state.
