Most of us have lived through the construction of an extensive freeway system in a county that in 1975 had very few freeways. These ADOT takings are usually takings in fee or takings of an entire piece of property, but they often result in severance claims because of the impact on the remaining property. Current ADOT projects include: the widening of the I-10 to Tempe, the 303, and discussions continue as to a 51st Avenue or other alignment to serve the south of Phoenix.
