Staff Report

RMCI, under contract with the Los Alamos County Department of Public Utilities, is replacing a section of 16-inch waterline under and alongside N.M. 4 near the Truck Route ahead of an upcoming New Mexico Department of Transportation road rehabilitation project.

There are no lane closures planned for northbound traffic and barrier walls along the shoulder of the northbound lane on N.N. 4 at the Truck Route remain in place. Crews will test, disinfect and flush the new waterline before tying it into the water system.

A lane closure is planned for the right turn lane for southbound traffic on N.M. 4 at the Truck Route intersection. Crews will bore and jack under N.M. 4 from west to east. A barrier wall will be erected in the southbound road shoulder for the bore pit.
