Telshor Boulevard and Lohamn Avenue one of Las Cruces NM. Busiest intersections will soon see less congestion. The project estimated to cost $2.4 million is being funded by a grant from the New Mexico State Highway Department. Governor Richardson’s Investment Partnership (GRIP2) program where the city of Las Cruces matches funds.
The project will reconstruct the intersection so as to provide for two through lanes, two left turn lanes and a right turn lane. Oops, almost forgot it will have a bike lane too. This is one of the intersections to get the new red light running cameras.
This congestion relief project should begin in August of this year and run through April of 2010. My Las Cruces NM Real Estate office is very close to this intersection. Although I will enjoy the benefits from the project, I am not looking forward to all the construction chaos.
