| Westside Blvd will have westbound traffic shifted and reduced to one lane west of Golf Course Rd and just east of Golf Course Rd. Golf Course Rd will have one thru lane and one right-turn lane of northbound traffic south of Westside Blvd. Golf Course Rd will have one lane of northbound traffic just north of Westside Blvd. Golf Course Rd will have one lane of southbound traffic just north of Westside Blvd. Regular work hours are Mon.-Fri. 7 a.m.-5 p.m., although the contractor may work longer hours or on weekends if needed. About the Westside Blvd Widening Project The Westside Blvd Widening Project will widen about 0.85 miles of Westside Blvd from NM 528 (Coors Blvd) to Golf Course Rd from two lanes to four. It will also provide dedicated left-hand turn lanes at the intersections of Westside Blvd and Golf Course Rd, 7 Bar Loop, Sierrita Rd and Grande Blvd. In addition, the project will improve storm drainage and provide better, safer travel options for pedestrians and bicyclists. All construction is weather permitting and is subject to change without notice. |
