ESPANOLA, N.M. — In Española, a part of U.S. Highway 84/285 will be closed all day each day this week due to a repaving project.
Work will take place on East Paseo de Oñate, which will be closed each day from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday, December 5, through Saturday, December 10.
While it’s closed, traffic will be diverted onto northbound New Mexico Highway 68 and to eastbound NM 584, to then reconnect with U.S. 84/285.
NMDOT says traffic control personnel will be there at each end of the closure and electronic signage will be posted to guide you along the detour.
The project is around a mile-long and should wrap up December 10, with traffic going back to normal the following day.
