Who can use the MULTI-USE PATH? IE People walking. peddle bikes, electric bikes. eclectic scouters, other motorized vehicles, side-x-side, skateboards, electric skateboards, etc.

Per the NMDOT, the Multi-use paths is intended to be used by PEOPLE and BICYCLES. NMDOT has indicated the city will be able to also allow skateboards and motorized scooters. The commission may have to adopt a policy to allow this. Other types of motorized vehicles, such as OHV and motorcycles will not be allowed to utilize the multi-use path.

Do bicycles and other non vehicular travelers that use the MULTI-USE PATH have to follow traffic laws or are there some other laws they must follow?

Yes, all user of the roadways or alternative transportation paths are subject to New Mexico Laws. The city police department intend to provide guidance and reasonable support to assist with simple driving errors or misunderstandings as our community becomes acclimated to the new roadway.

Speeding is a problem in this area. With only one lane will there be more enforcement of the 25mph Speed limit?

One of the goals of the road diet is to slow traffic down in these areas. The goal is for this area to become safer for traffic and pedestrians. The police department will work to assist drivers with the new traffic patterns. The police department is active in our discussions regarding the new traffic patterns. They will be required to enforce traffic laws when appropriate.

As a wheelchair user, with my passenger-side deploying ramp, may I deploy it into the Multi-Use path?

There is a safe corridor between the parking area and the multi-use path. This area is not designated as ADA compliant; however, this area should provide reasonable access for the side deploying ramp. Discretion will be necessary to provide safe transfer. That decision is up to the user.

Where is the federally mandatory handicap parking?

There is no requirement for ADA parking in this design. The city of Truth or Consequences can designate ADA parking along side streets within the City’s jurisdiction. We will review this issue and develop a plan should it be necessary or requested.

With two-way traffic on the multi-use path and one-way traffic on the vehicle lane. When exiting Main Street or Broadway by turning right onto a side street, will the vehicles parked on the right side of the vehicle lane obscure the view of the driver to see bikes and others using the multi-path in both directions?

The striping is designed to provide the necessary site distance for optimum visibility. There is a safety corridor between the multi-use path and the car parking area.

Are you eliminating parking near corners on the Main Street to allow for a better line of sight for cars emerging from side streets? Presently the view of oncoming traffic is already obstructed and creates a hazard.

The striping is designed to provide the necessary site distance for optimum visibility. There is a safety corridor between the multi-use path and the car parking area.

Could you provide a map of lane markings/striping of downtown area, i.e. Main and Broadway street showing one lane, multi use lane, and parking spaces?

Traffic and Parking Impacts:

⇒ Lane closures from the roundabouts on Date Street to I-25 Exit 75 (Williamsburg), including Broadway and Main Street.
⇒ One lane will remain open throughout construction.
⇒ Business and residential access will be maintained, though some detours may be necessary.
⇒ Residents and businesses may need to temporarily adjust parking to facilitate construction. Your assistance with prompt vehicle relocation will help expedite the process.

Road Diet Implementation in Downtown T or C:

As part of this project, a Road Diet will be implemented along the I-25 Business Loop between Austin Avenue and First Avenue. The business loop traveling eastbound is Broadway Boulevard, and the westbound route is Main Street. Both roads currently have two 12-ft travel lanes with 10-ft shoulders, used for parallel parking in some areas.

The Road Diet will convert the roadway to one 11-ft travel lane in each direction, reallocating space to:

⇒ On-street parallel parking on both sides of the roadway
⇒ A striped buffer
⇒ A 10-ft wide multi-use path on one side of the roadway

What is a Road Diet?

A Road Diet is a reallocation of roadway space—often using low-cost solutions such as restriping—to enhance safety, increase multimodal accommodations, and provide additional community benefits.

How is the traffic going to work fire emergency vehicles, i.e. how is the public going to get out of the way?

How should drivers respond to emergency vehicles with the Road Diet?

Stay Alert – Listen for sirens and check mirrors frequently.
Move Right When Safe – If possible, pull into a parking stall, designated shoulder, or as far to the right as possible.
Avoid Intersections – Do not stop in the middle of an intersection; instead, clear it and then move right.
Come to a Full Stop – Once safely positioned, remain stopped until the emergency vehicle passes.
Resume Travel Safely – Check surroundings before merging back into traffic.

With the new police station proposed at the old PNC bank 210 Main Street, how are the police going to get onto main street with a blind corner and ONLY one lane road, especially on a major weekend?

The concept of the road diet was presented and discussed with local police department. No concerns related to sight distance or the reduction to a one-lane concept were identified. For further information and/or comments please coordinate with your local emergency service providers.

Delivery trucks. Are they going to be allowed to stop in the one lane blocking traffic?

Delivery trucks are generally not allowed to block a travel lane, regardless of the number of lanes. If a truck obstructs traffic unnecessarily, it may be considered a violation, subject to citation under local laws. The road diet concept provides designated parking areas parallel to the travel lane to support efficient loading and unloading. In addition, private parking facilities and side streets may offer suitable alternatives.

Do turn lanes need to be blocked when no equipment or workers are in the area?

n day one, when construction started, we brought this to the attention of NM DOT; within an hour, adjustments were made to block turn lanes only when equipment or workers were at the intersection.

NM Senate Bill 69 - RELATING TO TRANSPORTATION

Timeline for the development and implementation of the Down Town Striping Project.

When (what year/s) was this project initially developed???

This project was developed as part of the NMDOT regular maintenance program. The project was designed in 2024 following the completion of the North Date Street project and the construction of the Williamsburg bridge project. The NMDOT made the decision to complete the work for the entire corridor. The idea to change the downtown lanes and parking design can be identified in the City of Truth or Consequences Downtown Masterplan approve by the commission in 2014 (attached 2 items from the Master Plan).

(Oct. 23, 2024) NMDOT Meeting Downtown Striping. Final decision on the design of the stripping.

The City of TorC was approached in October of 2024 by the DOT to hold a public meeting to discuss the striping options for downtown TorC. It was reported on pretty heavily in the Sentinel. There were only two options to vote on: Plan C and Plan D, both of which included restriping the downtown into one lane, but only plan D included a bike path/lane and access. That is the plan that most people attending the meeting agreed upon. However, most members in the community were against the restriping. Despite this, it was essentially presented that DOT was going to do this plan, or not repave and repaint the streets until several years down the road when the more funding was available. The community agreed to go ahead and allow the repaving and repainting to happen. Mayor Hechler stated in a meeting that if the striping ended up being more of a burden than an assistant, that it was just paint and could potentially be repainted.

Also, it should be noted, that whenever the DOT came up with this plan to restripe the streets, no one from any governmental entity in Sierra County was approached or asked for input. At least, not until the meeting in October of 2024, wherein the community was not allowed to give input on the design, and were only asked to choose between the presented plans C and D.
