Arizona State Route 48

State Route 48, also known as SR 48 and Fain Road, is a proposed state highway near Prescott in the U.S. state of Arizona.

Route description

It is proposed to run roughly northwest to southeast between State Route 89A and State Route 69 in Prescott Valley, Arizona. It is primarily intended as an eastern bypass around Prescott. The road is currently two lanes but there are plans to widen it to a divided four lane highway. On March 3, 2008, Yavapai County approved a $1.5 million design contract for widening of a section of Fain Road north of its intersection with State Route 69. Design completion is anticipated in early 2009, according to a county official.It has not been added to the state highway system.

History
From 1939-1945 Fain Road was the old road for State Route 179. There are some maps that still show Fain Rd as SR 179, but that is incorrect since the route number is already used as the main road to Sedona.
