Commission approves NMDOT funding applications for Greene Road and Lexco Road projects
Summary
The commission approved Resolution 2026-17 to apply for TPF funding for Greene Road (approx. $490,004, ~1 mile resurfacing) and Resolution 2026-18 for Lexco Road (approx. 7 miles, 2" overlay; funding options discussed at $1.6M or $940K). Both resolutions passed unanimously.
Road Superintendent Leonard Lujan told the commission Greene Road is a priority for full asphalt resurfacing and reclamation to support regional connectivity to Martinez and historic Route 66; the preliminary estimated cost presented was $490,004 for roughly one mile of work. Commissioners approved Resolution 2026‑17 to request NMDOT Transportation Projects Fund assistance.
Lujan also described the Lexco Road project, an approximately seven‑mile corridor proposed for a 2‑inch asphalt overlay with roughly a one‑foot widening on each side for safety. Two funding levels were discussed—$1.6 million or a reduced scope at $940,000—and the commission approved Resolution 2026‑18 to submit the TPF application. Both resolutions passed by unanimous roll call votes.
