Sentinel Peak-a-boo

The city of Tucson is running an online survey and will have open houses to gauge public interest about closing Sentinel Peak Road to cars during certain times and/or days.

The City of Tucson has launched a survey to hopefully better understand how residents use “A” Mountain, a popular site for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists.

Officials are gauging the public’s interest in creating a car-free schedule or possibly restricting Sentinel Peak Road access to pedestrian and bike traffic on certain days.

The park is currently open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Take the survey in English at https://bit.ly/2ScZNN1 or in Spanish at https://bit.ly/2SxXfoX. The survey closes on April 30.

The city is also planning two open house meetings. The first is March 20 at 5:30 p.m. in the City Council Ward 1 office, 940 W. Alameda St. A second meeting will occur on March 21 at 5:30 p.m. in the Ward 6 office, 3202 E. First St.
