Portion
of Santa Fe Rail Trail to be Closed
Improvement will
make for a better experience
SANTA FE, NM – – A portion of the Santa Fe Rail
Trail will be closed starting Thursday, August 8, 2019 until November 2019 to
improve a 1.5 mile section of the trail. The portion of trail that will be
closed is located between Avenida Eldorado (mile post 4.86) and Spur Ranch Road
(mile post 3.5).
The closure is part of the fourth phase of the trail improvements,
which includes trail surface and drainage improvements within the railroad
right of way of the Santa Fe Southern Railroad. Trail users should plan to use
an alternate route during the trail construction and closure.
Phase four of the project will cost approximately $391,010, the
project is funded from General Obligation Bond (GOB) and a Federal Highway
Administration Grant.
Santa Fe County has contracted with H.O. Construction of
Albuquerque, NM for this phase of the project.
For more information on this project contact Colleen Baker,
Project Manager, 505-992-9868 or cbaker@santafecountynm.gov
Please
be wary when driving at the junction of the Rail Trail and Spur Ranch Road
owing to this construction – there will be equipment working in this area.
