City of Albuquerque Constructive Conversations

Image

This spring, Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller and City Councilors met for “Constructive Conversations,” a series of community meetings fostering dialogue between residents and city leaders to shape the future of the built environment in Albuquerque. The meetings sought to bridge the gap between community aspirations and funding realities.

The series featured nine sessions exploring planned development in each Council district across Albuquerque. There was significant attendance and interaction between community members and the Mayor’s Office, City Councilors and City Department leaders including Planning, Parks and Recreation, Municipal Development, Community Safety and more. More than 1,100 people registered for the Conversations which took place in all nine City Council Districts.

The final report summarizes key facts related to the Constructive Conversations as well as feedback received on community hopes and needs.

The Mid-Region Council of Governments (MRCOG) is seeking public input on the 2045 Transitions MTP Phase 2 through a communitywide survey. The update to the region’s long-range transportation plan was officially kicked off last fall. Since then, MRMPO staff launched a successful first phase of public engagement with an interactive survey, public meetings, in person community events, and online tools. Now with summer in full swing, MRMPO is returning with a second phase of public engagement. You can take the online survey at: https://live.metroquestsurvey.com/?u=p3h3g#!/?p=web&pm=dynamic&s=1&popup=WTD.

NMDOT Starting Construction on I-25 Corridor in August

Posted on by

The New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) will begin improving the Interstate 25 (I-25) corridor in Albuquerque between Comanche Road and Montgomery Boulevard, including the freeway, frontage roads, and interchanges. Major construction is scheduled to begin in August 2024 and is anticipated to continue until spring 2027. The project will improve safety and travel times for drivers now and in the future. Additionally, the aging bridges and pavements will be replaced, and barrier-separated shared-use paths will be added at the interchanges to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. To learn more about the improvements on this three-year project, please visit the project website at https://i25improved.com.
