Too many accidents, for one road, fix the problem.

This highway is way too dangerous, it needs to be made into a four lane highway and patrolled more.

If as many life's were lost on one streach of road in Albuquerque, it would have been on the news a long time ago and something done about it! Please please hear us Sante Fe, and Eddy county! This roadway is too sad a situation to remain ignored!

The speeds and congestion on this highway is ridiculous. All the money that comes out of southeast New Mexico goes straight to the north. Leave some and reinvest in our highways and safety. It’s time to take care of all that travel these roads.

Too many fatal and serious accidents. The infrastructure needs serious updates. It was bad enough in the last boom, but now we have even more traffic due to pipeline, production, fracking, and all the new drilling that's going on all at once. The roads are deteriorating with high volumes of heavy equipment and lack of law enforcement. These "major roads" are merely county roads with minimal shoulders that are even putting law enforcement in danger trying to keep up with traffic violations. People broke down are also in harms way and causing more congestion. The oilfield is begging for help to keep hard working people and all others traveling these roads to have a safer way to get around safely.

One of the most dangerous highways I have ever driven, even more so the North Dakota during the boom.

You want to save lots of lives, family tragedies, pain, sufferings, make a huge difference? Then PAVE a four lane highway from Loving, NM to Pecos, TX. A lot of families in this region work their butts off driving this highway, lots of tax revenue from O&G ops here, help us out please, too many people dying! Road is NOT SUFFICIENT!

This road is horrible with the oilfield traffic and huge trucks. This definitely needs to be a 4 lane for everyone's safety. Too many have died.

I've driven this highway plenty of times in my life and it is a very dangerous road. It needs to be changed. 4 accidents in a week is not a good thing. It definitely needs to be a 4 lane highway. There is way to much oilfield traffic for it to be 2 lane
