The New Mexico Department of Transportation, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration, is performing a study for the extension of PDV from Rainbow Blvd. south for 7.5 miles to Southern Blvd. Right-of-way for PDV was identified by a previous study and most parcels have been acquired. The purpose of this study is to determine the configuration and alignment of the proposed roadway. Previous studies have proposed a two-lane roadway, with 12-foot driving lanes and eight-foot shoulders like the existing segment of PDV east of Unser Blvd.
The formal comment period has closed as of September 14, 2024. If you have any questions, please visit the study website. Comments and questions are welcome throughout the process.
