(CN 6101390) I-40/US 491 Interchange Safety Improvement Study (McKinley County)

Study History

In 2019, the City of Gallup and the NMDOT developed the Gallup Area Transportation Safety Plan that identified the I-40/US 491 interchange as a high-priority area for safety and traffic mitigation measures.  In the fall of 2020, NMDOT started a Phase IA/B Study to identify options to make the interchange area safer for all users and examine how the interchange can work better with Maloney Avenue/US 491 intersection.

Public Information Meeting:

NMDOT and the City of Gallup are hosting a public information meeting on the I-40/US 491 interchange safety improvement study (CN 6101390).  The meeting will provide an overview of the project, including an overview of the options studied and trade-offs to the alternatives.  The meeting will also be an opportunity for the public to ask questions and provide comments.

  • The meeting will take place online on Wednesday, April 28, 2021 from 4:45pm until 6:00pm.
