At the request made by Four Hills Village (FHV) residents, the city has had three traffic calming studies made of the FHV neighborhood over the last year and a half. In all these recent traffic studies of FHV there has been no mention about how bad the conditions of the roads in Four Hills Village are.
Currently, within the FHV boundaries there are approximately 5.4 linear miles of road that are in serious need of repaving, approximately 4.7 linear miles of road that are in marginal condition and need significant repair work, and another approximately 6.8 linear miles of roads that are serviceable but need maintenance. These mileage measurements do not include the perimeter mileage of the many cul-de-sacs which would add another estimated 5 or more linear miles to the total. In a separate but related issue, only two of the five locked emergency exits/entrances are currently usable. No gates had signs listing contact numbers for unlocking the gates.
In the light of the probable availability of new federal infrastructure funds and the upcoming NM 2023 legislative session, the FHVA board decided to make an appeal to the city, county, and state governments for funds to repair selected roads and infrastructure within FHV.
