Project Updates

North Guadalupe Street Reopens to Traffic Following Asphalt Work

The City of Santa Fe is pleased to announce that North Guadalupe Street is now open to traffic following the successful completion of the first lift of new asphalt.

The reopened section extends from the intersection of Mckenzie Street north to Paseo De Peralta. As of yesterday, the contractor completed the necessary paving work, allowing for full restoration of traffic movements at the intersections of Mckenzie Street, Jefferson Street, Catron Street, and Solana Street.

Drivers are encouraged to proceed with caution as crews may continue to work in the area over the coming days. The City appreciates the public’s patience during this phase of infrastructure improvements and remains committed to keeping residents informed as the project progresses.

Guadalupe Street Reconstruction Project – Updated Closure Schedule

New details have been released regarding ongoing work on the Guadalupe Street Road Reconstruction Project. The relocation of two major gas mains is taking longer than originally anticipated by the Gas Company. As a result, adjustments have been made to the construction and road closure schedule.

Updated Road Closure Timeline:

Northbound:

• West Alameda to Paseo De Peralta closed through July 4, 2025

Southbound:

• West San Francisco to West Alameda closed June 30 – July 11, 2025
• West San Francisco to Catron closed July 11 – July 26, 2025
• Catron to Paseo De Peralta closed July 26 – August 8, 2025

Drivers are advised to plan ahead, expect delays, and follow all posted detour signs. Thank you for your understanding as this essential infrastructure work continues.

Roadwork continues to progress with crews installing cement median curbs and gutters, removing old asphalt, and preparing for paving.

A minor delay at Johnson Street and Guadalupe has not impacted progress in other areas. Once the Gas Company completes its work, paving will begin.

Thanks to a revised schedule, we now anticipate paving a larger section of the roadway, from San Francisco Street to Catron Street, and possibly extending to Paseo De Peralta, by the week ending June 21. This adjustment allows for a more efficient and expanded improvement of the corridor.

Gas Main Relocation Causes Two-Week Paving Delay

On Friday, May 30, 2025, a gas main was discovered only 6 inches under the existing asphalt at the intersection of Johnson and Guadalupe Streets. For public safety and to comply with the City Code, the gas main must be relocated to be 3 feet below the new pavement. New Mexico Gas Co. will expedite this unscheduled work, with a projected completion date of June 12. Paving is delayed until the relocation is complete and new segment schedules are attached. The project team will continue to move forward with other work on the project.

NEW PAVEMENT SUMMARY SCHEDULE:

• North San Francisco to Catron. New completion date: 6-21-2025
• North Catron to Paseo De Peralta 6-23-2025 – 7-11-2025
• South Paseo De Peralta to Catron 7-12-2025 – 7-26-2025
• North Catron to Johnson 7-26-2025 – 8-02-2025
• South Johnson to San Francisco 8-02-2025 – 8-09-2025
• South San Francisco to Alameda 8-09-2025 – 8-16-2025

Current Traffic Impacts

Guadalupe Street is presently closed to northbound traffic between West Alameda Street and Catron Street. In addition, several side streets, Johnson Street, McKenzie Street, and Jefferson Street, are closed where they intersect with Guadalupe. These streets remain accessible via Griffin Street.

What’s Changing?

Starting Monday, June 2, the northbound closure on Guadalupe Street will extend from West Alameda Street to Paseo De Peralta. This means northbound traffic will not be permitted along this stretch. However, Catron Street will remain open to both eastbound and westbound traffic.

Plan Ahead

Please follow all posted signs and detour routes. We recommend allowing additional time for travel through this area during construction. Sidewalks on both sides of the street will remain open for pedestrian traffic. 

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to enhance Santa Fe’s roads and infrastructure. Thank you for helping keep our community moving safely.
