EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — If you are traveling from Las Cruces or El Paso to Albuquerque, your trip may take a little longer.

The New Mexico Department of Transportation announced that the northbound lanes of Interstate 25 will be closed at Exit 75 at Truth or Consequences, starting on Wednesday, April 24.

The closure will take place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, NMDOT said, but the contractor may work longer hours or on weekends as needed.

Northbound traffic will use the newly constructed off- and on-ramps to continue traveling north.

Access will be maintained for all businesses and residences, NMDOT said.

The overall project includes: construction of a new bridge and roadway reconstruction, including new signs and striping, new curb and gutter, new roadway lighting, improvement of storm drainage and erosion control.

The project is expected to be completed by August 2024.
