IT’S THE ALBUQUERQUE-BERNALILLO COUNTY WATER AUTHORITY … NOT THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE … DOING PRELIMINARY WORK FOR THE ALBUQUERQUE RAPID TRANSIT PROJECT. THE WORK STARTED MONDAY AND HAS ANGERED OPPONENTS OF THE CONTROVERSIAL PROJECT. THEY SAY THERE ARE TWO LAWSUITS FILED AGAINST LAYING IN BUS LANES AND BUS STATIONS ON CENTRAL FROM LOUISIANA TO COORS … SO THE WORK SHOULDN’T HAVE STARTED.
THE WATER AUTHORITY SAYS CREWS ARE MOVING UNDERGROUND UTILITY LINES BETWEEN COORS AND ATRISCO AND MONROE AND LOUISIANA … WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN REQUIRED REGARDLESS OF THE PROJECT.
