The I-40 Corridor Study covers 150-miles of I-40 and adjacent frontage roads and alternate routes located from milepost 0.0 to 150.0 (from the Arizona State Line to Atrisco Vista Interchange at Albuquerque). The purpose of the study is to identify corridor needs, develop, and evaluate alternatives, and create a long-term improvement plan to address operations and safety for this section of I-40.
“This study is focused on improving safety along the I-40 corridor. We are excited as some very crucial data has been collected. The study could lead to significant projects along the corridor, and we encourage everyone to participate in the study process,” District 6 Engineer Lisa Vega stated.
After the online Public Input Meeting, NMDOT will hold a comment period through May 24, to allow the public to provide input on the study and identified alternatives.
