• Eastbound traffic on Trinity Drive will be reduced to one way traffic from DP Road to the roundabout
  
• Westbound traffic on NM 502 will be directed into the roundabout and onto Central Avenue, which means traffic will become two way traffic just west of the roundabout on Central Avenue
  
• Eastbound motorists are advised to use Central Avenue and will be directed into the roundabout where they will merge with the eastbound traffic from Trinity Drive
  
• 4^th Street will remain closed between the roundabout and Iris Street
  
• Motorist’s are reminded that vehicles within the roundabout have the right of way
  
• East and westbound traffic east of the intersection of Canyon Road will be moved to the outer most lanes
