SouthEastern Arizona Governments Organization

Transportation

The SEAGO Transportation Program assists member entities with program elements administered through the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). SEAGO provides transportation planning, grants and other services for communities within Cochise, Graham, Greenlee and Santa Cruz counties.

Some of the services SEAGO’s Transportation division provides are:

• Five-year Transportation Improvement Program or TIP


• Transportation Enhancement Grant Program


• LTAF II Distribution for Transit activities


• 5310 – 5311 – 5316 – 5317 Transit Grants


• Small Area Transportation Studies ( SAT's)


• Coordinating data collection efforts in developing, implementing, and monitoring a regional Five-Year Highway Construction program


• Collection of performance data for the regional road and highway system (HPMS)


• Collection of population data for growth projections for the region - see our State data section


• Documentation of current functional classification of regional public roads

SEAGO’s region (VI) covers 14,000 square miles and is very rural. Each community within the region receives funds based primarily on population, or through a highly competitive application process. As a result, the smaller communities find it difficult to compete with the larger communities within the state of Arizona for valuable grant funding. SEAGO’s transportation department provides technical support, and other data information to these communities when applying for ADOT or transportation related grants.
