Corrales Village Council Drops Roads From Long Range Plan
The Corrales Village Council unanimously removed two proposed roads from the Long Range Street Plan and reclassified the main canal road from minor arterial to local collector. They cited traffic concerns and a desire to keep the village rural while considering measures like traffic signals to manage growth. Local business owners voice mixed views on higher traffic, some fearing urbanization and others hoping for more customers.
