TWO BILLS WILL BE INTRODUCED AT MONDAY'S ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCIL MEETING THAT WOULD DELAY A TRAFFIC LOOP FROM BEING BUILT AT JEFFERSON MID SCHOOL. COUNCILOR ISAAC BENTON PLANS TO INTRODUCE BOTH BILLS … ONE THAT WOULD ASK THE CITY TO NOT APPROVE ANY CHANGES TO THE ROADS AROUND THE SCHOOL UNTIL IT GETS PUBLIC INPUT. THE OTHER WOULD CREATE A TASK FORCE ON THE ISSUE MADE UP OF RESIDENTS AND APS REPS TO CONSIDER HOW TRAFFIC IMPACTS OLDER DISTRICT SCHOOLS.
PROPONENTS OF THE LOOP SAY IT WOULD MAKE IT EASIER TO DROP OFF AND PICK UP STUDENTS ON GIRARD AND LOMAS.
