91st Avenue Improvements near Cardinals Stadium

To improve infrastructure and accessibility to the Cardinals Stadium site, the City of Glendale hired Hunter Contracting Co. (Hunter) to construct 4,500 linear feet of the new Bethany Home Road and widened two miles of 91st Avenue to six lanes. The scope included: widening and overlaying the existing roadway, full curb and gutter sections, landscaping, lights, water, sewer, storm drain, extending an 18-inch PVC effluent waterline, reclaimed water, and extensive SRP irrigation improvements for this time-sensitive project to accommodate the tight schedule related to the Cardinals’ stadium grand opening.

Hunter provided design phase assistance for constructing the new section of Bethany Home Road and improvements to 91st Avenue. Using Value Engineering, Hunter redesigned the alignment of the pipe to avoid two canal crossings with a cost savings of $547,920 and was able to complete the project ahead of schedule.
