History

The ground floor part of SR-24.

State Route 24 was originally planned as State Route 802. This was changed to State Route 24 in 2011, which is the lowest number of any State Route in Arizona.

The first plans for a freeway southeast of Mesa emerged in 2003, when a master plan for the region proposed a freeway connecting to Loop 202. At the time, the highway was planned to be constructed between 2016 and 2020. In 2004, a local VAT increase was approved by referendum to fund transport projects. This freed up funding for the Gateway Freeway, construction began on March 30, 2012. The first 2 miles cost $148 million, a relatively large amount, due to a half- stack junction with Loop 202 in Mesa and interlacing to Ellsworth. Road. State Route 24 is expected to become a busy road in the future. The first 2 kilometers were opened on May 5, 2014.

Over time, it is planned to extend the highway further south around Queen Creek and future new suburban developments. In late 2020, construction began on an 8-kilometer extension to Ironwood Drive. On April 1, 2022, the first 2 kilometers of this opened up to Williams Field Road. The rest will open on August 11, 2022. This was an ‘interim’ phase in which the highway was constructed, but the split-level connections still run below the exit. The viaducts will have to be constructed at a later date.
