Concerns and support were raised for both the signalized intersection and for the roundabout alternative. After detailed analysis and review\, the NMDOT has decided to proceed with the implementation of a roundabout.   \nA roundabout was the selected alternative as it provides the greatest improvements for three major areas of concern currently experienced at the intersection:  \n  \n\nReduction of severe injury and fatal crashes: approximately an 80% reduction in injury crashes and 100% reduction in fatal crashes. This is compared to a 44% reduction for a 4-way traffic signal. \n\n\nReduction in speeds: the geometric design for the roundabout will promote vehicles to slow when approaching the intersection  \n\n\nImproved traffic flow: the roundabout shows more improvement in reducing delays\, particularly during the morning and evening traffic rush hours  \n\n\nConcerns regarding a roundabout were raised by the public during the initial phase of public engagement. Frequent areas of concern included: \n\n\n\n\nHow will the roundabout accommodate a significant influx of traffic when I-40 is closed down? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan the roundabout handle larger vehicles that are likely to use the intersection such as semitrucks and horse trailers? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow will the roundabout function during inclement weather conditions? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan the roundabout be implemented within existing right-of-way?\n\n\n\nEach of these concerns\, and others raised during the first public engagement effort\, were considered in detail during the final selection of an alternative. A detailed breakdown of comments and questions received during the engagement efforts is provided in the Public Outreach Summary found on this webpage.   \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n MEETING RESOURCES\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Public Presentation (PDF) - April 2026\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n i\n \n Public Outreach Summary - As of October 2026\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n WE WELCOME YOUR COMMENTS!\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n NMDOT recognizes that community feedback is a vital part of the project process and helps ensure the improvements reflect local needs.
