Other projects:
NM502 Roundabout Construction & Road work (State DOT, Star Paving)
No changes this week to existing detours. Drivers can expect minor delays through the existing work zone from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday-Friday. A lane shift for traffic is expected within the next 2 weeks; crews will be paving the north side of NM502 in order to accomplish the changeover. Motorists are asked to slow down and be observant as the new change takes effect.
Traffic advisories and updates will be posted on the www.NMroads.com website.
Please use caution in the construction zone. Speeding over the 25 mph limit continues to be a safety concern for crews working within these constrained, congested work zones. Be patient and obey all traffic signs. The NMDOT appreciates your cooperation.
DP Rd (Bethel Development)
Road work is expected to begin soon for infrastructure installation to support the new Canyon Walk Apartments being constructed on the north side of DP Road. Details will be published in the Cone Zone and advertised in local media as soon as the traffic plan from the developer (Bethel) is approved. Additional work related to the lift station along DP Rd is also set to get underway. Watch future editions of the Cone Zone each week for details.
