At an elevation of about 6,910-feet, Flagstaff is located in North Central Arizona near the base of the breathtaking 12,633-foot San Francisco Peaks. It is a major hub for transportation, being located at the intersection of I-40 and I-17. Phoenix is located about 112 miles south of Flagstaff. The original Route 66 also runs through the heart of Flagstaff. Flagstaff’s location and climate make it a superb and special playground for many, including Arizona’s desert dwellers. Normally about the 8th snowiest city (average snowfall: 100”) in the USA and having about 300 days of sunshine, it is a winter wonderland for sports enthusiasts. Summers are very mild in comparison to the sizzling temperatures found in many parts of Arizona, particularly the lower lying desert areas to the south.

  • Sustainable Wildlife Corridors in the Flagstaff Region
    Sustainable Wildlife Corridors in the Flagstaff Region 2009 Flagstaff Zoning Code Update 2009 Flagstaff Regional Transportation Plan 2012 Flagstaff Regional Land Use Plan Prepared by Jessica Gist and Sarah Reif Arizona Game and Fish Department - Region II, 3500 S. Lake Mary Rd, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-214-1253 Introduction As the human population grows in the Flagstaff region, we increase the impact of transportation corridors (such as roads and rails) and land use changes (such as urban and rural development) on wildlife populations. The frequent result of these activities is habitat fragmentation, which creates barriers to animal movement within previously unfragmented blocks of habitat. Promoting wildlife habitat connectivity will help: improve human safety by reducing vehicular collisions with wildlife; maintain the ability of animals to access necessary resources for survival and reproduction; allow for wildlife movement between populations; allow for seasonal migration; enable population movements in response to climate change; and prevent genetic isolation of wildlife populations. Loss of habitat connectivity is not inevitable, as long as the needs of wildlife are cooperatively addressed early in the transportation and development planning process. To that end, the City of Flagstaff and Coconino County requested wildlife corridor information from the Arizona Game and Fish Department to be evaluated as part of the Flagstaff Regional Land Use and Transportation Plan Updates, as well as the Zoning Code Update. The information provided includes a map and brief description of sustainable wildlife corridors as well as travel mitigation areas. Corridors and travel mitigation areas are described in terms of the habitats they connect or fragment (respectively), the species that need them, and the barriers that threaten them.

  • Blueprint 2040 Regional Transportation Plan March 2017
    Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization Blueprint 2040 Regional Transportation Plan March 2017 DRAFT This page intentionally blank DRAFT Dear Flagstaff Region Residents: We, the members of the Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization (FMPO), are pleased to present Blueprint 2040: Flagstaff Regional Transportation Plan. This important document provides strong recommendations on the transportation projects we need over the course of the next 20-25 years. The plan offers a balance of transportation projects that are in keeping with our adopted land use policies, economic aspirations and fiscal realities. It supports travel by all modes: walking, biking, automobile, bus and truck. As the FMPO, we work to fulfill our mandate to guide and authorize the spending of federal transportation dollars and our mission of delivering the finest transportation system for a community our size. Ultimately, the transportation projects built depend on decisions made by FMPO member agencies: The City of Flagstaff, Arizona Department of Transportation, Coconino County and NAIPTA, our regional transit agency. It also depends on future decisions made by our voters regarding sales taxes and other revenues supporting transportation investment. We believe the information in Blueprint 2040 is valuable in guiding those choices and fulfilling our purpose. As your representatives to the FMPO, we commit to continue the dialogue with you about the projects under the control of our respective agencies. Some of the “lines on the map” represent transportation solutions that may impact some neighborhoods and businesses. As those decisions arise, we will engage with you in project level decisions to protect the integrity of our neighborhoods. We are thankful for the involvement of our citizens and visitors in the planning process and encourage you to read Blueprint 2040.
