South Solano Road Diet a Go!

Solano Road Diet

Local ride heading south on Solano

Congratulations Las Cruces, you are one step closer to what you CAN be.

Despite some resistance, the south Solano micro-resurfacing and Road Diet will continue as planned. A big THANKS to the City Council, especially Councilwoman Connor; Mayor Miyagishima, and City Manager Moore for their continual support of this progressive community.

Last but not least, a much BIGGER THANKS to Mike Johnson, Dan Soriano, Caeri Thomas and of course Andy Hume. Without their efforts, Las Cruces bicycle facilities would be a fraction of what they are now!

No word yet on the expected completion date but we will keep you posted.

Public Transit ridership down

As the city of Las Cruces grows, bus ridership has declined.  I suspect the reduction of the budget and the general attitude towards public transportion.  It’s similar to the citys approach to bicycle facilities… the low numbers from studies are given as reasons why progressive urban ideas are not implemented…
