It's disappointing the most critical phase of this construction isn't scheduled to go until last. It cannot become a true I-10 reliever until it connects to the Durango curve. Getting the 30 to connect the 202 to Dysart road by 2031 isn't nothing, but most of that traffic on the I-10 west in the afternoons generates in Phx, Scottsdale and Tempe and so the mini stack and tunnel will be a mess for at least another decade plus.
