Rehabilitation of the Vado East Levee, Doña Ana County, NM

Directions from USIBWC Headquarters to Project Site

From USIBWC's parking lot head west on Executive Center Blvd.

Because the westbound on ramp to I-10 is closed, continue across I-10 down the hill to Paisano

Drive. Stay in the right lane as you near Paisano.

Turn right (north) onto Paisano.

Continue on Paisano until it merges with I-10. You will want to be in the left lane as Paisano travels over I-10 in order to enter the freeway. The on ramp is on the left.

Travel west (actually driving north) on I-10 for approximately 22 miles.

Take Exit 155 - Vado, NM.

There are two traffic circles on this exit. Continue around the first circle and then cross I-10, heading west. Continue around the next traffic circle, taking Vado Drive (NM 227) also heading west. At this point you should be heading down the hill past the Texaco gas station.

Continue on Vado Drive until it T's (stop sign) with NM 478. It's about 1.75 miles. The stop sign will be just past a Family Dollar store.

At this stop sign, turn left (south).

Travel south just a ¼ mile (see blue line below). Turn right (west) on NM 189. There is a warehouse for Crop Production Services (CPS) as well as several large, cylindrical, metal storage tanks on either side of NM 189.

Go straight on NM 189 (yellow line above) across the railroad tracks. The turn for the levee is less than a ¼ mile from NM 478.

Turn left (south) onto the levee (red line above) before the bridge over the Rio Grande.

The project starts approximately 1 mile south of NM 189.
