ALBUQUERQUE – Through the Transportation Project Fund (TPF) program, more than $100,435,817 is being invested in 71 projects statewide, strengthening infrastructure and supporting economic growth across New Mexico. Within this effort, District Three secured $15,328,826 for roadway projects, awarding six local municipalities with a 95% match in funding.
“Supporting local entities provides vital resources for improving roads, bridges, and airports. Without this funding, many New Mexico communities would face challenges in making the infrastructure upgrades necessary for growth and development,” stated Acting District Three Engineer, Isaac Chavez.
