The city of Sedona is in the process of moving up a portion of its Transit Master Plan to help address the ever-increasing problem of trailhead parking. The plan calls for a temporary trailhead shuttle exchange hub to be placed at the city-owned Ranger Station Park on Brewer Road. David Jolkovski/Larson Newspapers
As a result of this year’s spring break crowds, which brought an increase in traffic and parking issues at area trailheads, the city is looking to do something about it several years ahead of schedule.
The Sedona City Council on May 11 gave direction to staff to proceed with plans council members think may serve as a temporary fix to the above problem. While the overall transit plan will take several years to implement, Robert Weber, the city’s first-ever transit administrator, feels there are things that can be done in the meantime.

Sometimes those who protect the public need a helping hand from those they serve.
That was the case on Dec. 20 of last year when officers from the Sedona Police Department were involved in the department’s second officer-involved shooting of the year.
On that day, SPD responded to the Sedona Airport regarding three suspects that had entered the secured air operations portion of the facility and then stole an airport truck.
