It appears that NM DOT is going to repave NM 41 from Galisteo to 285. And, if I read the information correctly they also plan on paving a 4 – 6 ft wide shoulder on both sides of the road. How awesome would that be? The comment period is just opening and runs through mid Sept. I could not find a projected start or completion date for the project, but yesterday would not be soon enough. Here are some links:
