Construction Crushes Local Businesses | Tucson News

from Tucson News Today | 2 Min Now | The Daily News Now!

East Grant Road businesses are on the brink as a multi-year construction project, funded slowly and delayed by the recession, grinds on — with phases three and four already underway and set to last until 2026. Owners say road closures, restricted access, and dwindling customers have forced some to shut down, while others fear imminent collapse. From laundromats to banks and grocery stores, the toll is widespread — even businesses in later phases face eminent domain. Despite claims of being on schedule, crews working brutal shifts under heat and logistical chaos are leaving local commerce reeling, with many wondering if they’ll survive to see the finished road.
