===Road transport=== [[Interstate 10 in Arizona|Interstate 10]] passes through Goodyear, heading west to [[Buckeye, Arizona|Buckeye]] and [[Los Angeles]]. I-10 heads east to Phoenix, [[Tucson, Arizona|Tucson]], and the [[Southern United States|Southern states]]. The city is also served by the western ends of several bus routes of the [[Valley Metro Bus (Phoenix)|Valley Metro Bus]].<ref name="valley_metro">{{cite book|title=Transit Book|date=July 2012|publisher=[[Valley Metro]]|url=http://www.valleymetro.org/|access-date=August 26, 2012}}</ref> Other roads and highways serve the area. [[Arizona State Route 303|Loop 303]] starts as Cotton Lane then heads up north to [[Surprise, Arizona|Surprise]] and then to [[Interstate 17]]. [[Van Buren Street (Arizona)|Van Buren Street]] and McDowell, Indian School and Camelback Roads are major arterial roads leading from the extreme western Phoenix area to past [[Scottsdale, Arizona|Scottsdale]] in the east. MC 85 (Maricopa County Highway 85) is a highway running from [[Arizona State Route 85]] in Buckeye to [[Arizona State Route 202|Loop 202]] in Phoenix. The highway passes the southern sections of Goodyear. ====Public transportation==== [[Valley Metro]] operates public transportation in Goodyear. They operate the Avondale ZOOM neighborhood circulator, the 562 Goodyear Express during weekday rush hours, which connects Goodyear Park and Ride to Downtown Phoenix, and the 17 McDowell bus on Monday thru Saturday (Sunday service ends at 99th Avenue on the Avondale/Tolleson border). Goodyear is also a member of WeRIDE, which operates [[demand-responsive transport]] in [[Peoria, Arizona|Peoria]], Goodyear, [[Avondale, Arizona|Avondale]], and [[Surprise, Arizona|Surprise]].<ref>https://www.westvalleyview.com/news/weride-reaches-250-000-passengers-served/article_103bd9ec-dea0-11ef-ba1f-cf55d776554d.html</ref> ====Road improvements==== Interstate 10 was built through Goodyear in the late 20th century. Between 2008 and 2014, the road had significant expansions. It was expanded from two lanes in each direction to five or six (including one [[HOV lane]] starting near Loop 303 going east). There were also new interchanges, including Exit 122 (Perryville Road), Exit 123 (Citrus Road) and Exit 125 (Sarival Avenue). ====Loop 303 improvement==== The [[Arizona Department of Transportation]] built a new interchange near the Interstate 10/Loop 303 junctions. The interchange is being expanded from a [[diamond interchange]] to a [[stack interchange]]. As a result, Loop 303 under Interstate 10 was cleared, and Exit 124 on [[Interstate 10]] has been shut down; the new interchange was completed in 2014. South of Interstate 10, Loop 303 is being planned to extend to a future State Route 30. Loop 303 will go south of future State Route 30 to [[Estrella, Goodyear|Estrella Mountain Ranch]] and to [[Interstate 8]] near [[Mobile, Arizona]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Loop 303 South of I-10|url=http://www.azdot.gov/Highways/Valley_Freeways/Freeway_Maps/Loop_303.asp|access-date=December 18, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130818092415/http://azdot.gov/Highways/Valley_Freeways/Freeway_Maps/Loop_303.asp|archive-date=August 18, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> ====State Route 30 (formerly State Route 801)==== [[Arizona State Route 30]] (originally designated as State Route 801) is a proposed highway south of Interstate 10 that will relieve traffic congestion. It is planned to run between Arizona State Route 85 to Interstate 17.<ref>{{cite web|title=Valley Freeways (State Route 801)|url=http://www.azdot.gov/Highways/Valley_Freeways/Freeway_Maps/SR801.asp|access-date=December 18, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121125041824/http://www.azdot.gov/Highways/Valley_Freeways/Freeway_Maps/SR801.asp|archive-date=November 25, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>
