Coconino County Bellemont Roadway Alignment

NAU CENE Capstone Project 2025-2026

Coconino County has identified a need to provide alternative access from Bellemont to prioritize resident safety, travel efficiency, and future development. In response, Coconino County has proposed an alternative access route through the Coconino National Forest with a 1.5-mile two- lane roadway from Shadow Mountain Dr to Forest Service Rd 171. Overall, the project will support improved ingress and egress for daily and emergency use, while opening access to land for residential development.
