ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) –Crews are preparing for a closure on a busy Albuquerque intersection. Starting on June 18 and going through June 22, crews will be completing a major upgrade to the railroad crossing at 2nd Street and Rio Bravo Blvd.
The existing crossing will be replaced with a widened crossing to help accommodate the expanded six-lane roadway. During the closure, traffic will be diverted further down 2nd Street, towards Woodward Rd. The railroad crossing will be closed to rail traffic starting Friday, June 20 at 5 p.m. through Saturday, June 21 at 5 p.m.
Construction began about a year ago, just down the street at the nearby Princeton Dr. and Rio Bravo Blvd. intersection and stretching all the way to I-25. This upcoming project will bring several improvements to this intersection of roads, walking trails, and train tracks.
