PLANS ARE TO HAVE THE I-25/PASEO DEL NORTE PROJECT COMPLETED BY DECEMBER. A MAJOR STEP WAS TAKEN LAST WEEK WHEN EASTBOUND LANES OPENED ON THE NEW JEFFERSON OVERPASS ON PASEO. BUT PHIL GALLEGOS WITH THE D-O-T SAYS THE MORNING COMMUTE WILL EVENTUALLY GET EVEN BETTER FOR THOSE USING THE INTERCHANGE. HE SAYS IT'LL BE A FREE FLOW RIGHT AT SOME POINT THAT'LL TAKE DRIVERS DIRECTLY ONTO I-25 SOUTHBOUND.
CURRENTLY, EASTBOUND DRIVERS ON PASEO HAVE TO COME TO A STOP…THEN ACCESS SOUTHBOUND I-25 VIA THE FRONTAGE ROAD. MEANWHILE, WORK CONTINUES ON BUILDING THE FLYOVER FROM NORTHBOUND I-25 TO WESTBOUND PASEO.
