After decades of danger, Highway 95’s road to safe status is about to begin.
Starting this month, a stretch of Highway 95 from Avenue 9E to just north of Rifle Range Road is being expanded to five lanes, a project that will take roughly one year to complete.
Concurrently, long-awaited left and right turn lanes will be added to Highway 95’s intersection with Dome Valley Road.
In early August, YPG Commander Col. Patrick McFall participated in a groundbreaking ceremony held by the Yuma Metropolitan Planning Organization that kicked off this phase of lane expansion. Also at the event was YPG Command Sgt. Maj. Herbert Gill, former YPG Commander Ross Poppenberger, and numerous elected officials from local city, county, and state government.
“Any time a safety project comes to any U.S. military post, I support it,” said McFall in remarks at the ceremony. “I want to thank each and every one of you for ensuring our YPG Family gets to work safely every day, and gets to go home to their families every day, safely.”
