The New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT), in collaboration with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), has initiated an update to the New Mexico-Chihuahua Border Master Plan (BMP) completed in 2015. The purpose of this study is to develop an integrated BMP to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of New Mexico-Chihuahua cross-border traffic. The BMP takes a binational comprehensive approach to coordinate the planning and delivery of projects to improve land ports of entry (LPOE) and the transportation infrastructure serving these ports in the New Mexico-Chihuahua border region.

The BMP study area covers a wide range of jurisdictions, including federal, state, county and city governments, along with others including port authorities, planning associations and railroad companies. An inclusive stakeholder involvement program, seamlessly implemented on both sides of the border, is essential to achieving the objectives of the BMP study. NMDOT will host an online public meeting to provide information as well as an opportunity to provide comments to the BMP.

The NMDOT is hosting this public meeting virtually, using Zoom, due to current health considerations and restrictions due to COVID-19.

Attend the virtual public meeting on Wednesday, May 26, 2021, 6:00 p.m.
