Drivers can expect minor delays traveling near Rowe, NM

LAS VEGAS – The New Mexico Department of Transportation District Four office in cooperation with Fisher Sand & Gravel N.M. Inc. (Contractor) are excited to announce the upcoming roadway and bridge rehabilitation project on Interstate 25 between milepost 305 and milepost 309 (Rowe).

This project will consist of a Cold In Place Recycling (CIR) process. Cold in-place recycling (CIR) is a process that consists of milling and sizing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and mixing in-place the RAP with recycling additive and new aggregate (either in the milling machine’s cutting chamber or in a mix paver) to produce a recycled cold mix, which is then re-laid and compacted as a new base course.

Beginning Monday, March 6, 2023, drivers can expect various daytime lane closures on both the north and southbound lanes as needed. The contractor’s hours of operation will be from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. This rehabilitation project was awarded in the amount of $17.2 million and is expected to take 130 working days to complete, weather permitting.

The New Mexico Department of Transportation is committed to providing a safe and efficient transportation system for the traveling public and appreciates your cooperation during this project.
